Role Overview
This is a senior leadership role designed for an individual who combines consulting expertise, product management skills, and technical fluency to help nonprofits, governments, and foundations leverage AI for social impact. You will be responsible for defining the strategic direction of AI services, managing high-stakes client relationships, and overseeing the development of custom AI tools.
Key Responsibilities
Grow and Deliver External AI Consulting
Practice Building: Build IDinsight’s external AI Transformation Advisory practice into a sustainable, high-impact service line serving nonprofits, governments, and foundations.

Thought Leadership: Represent IDinsight externally through blog posts, conference presentations, and sector conversations on AI transformation.
Lead Internal AI Product Strategy

User-Centered Discovery: Drive user research and workflow audits to identify where AI can deliver step-change improvements across IDinsight’s business units and external partners.
Delivery Oversight: Ensure products move from concept to deployed tools on quick timelines, apply agile principles, stop what doesn’t work and scale what does.
