Director, Implementation

As Director of Implementation, you'll build and lead the team responsible for onboarding, deploying and training Zocks's enterprise and mid-market customers, which include large RIAs, broker-dealers, banks, and other financial services firms. You will build and lead a high-caliber team that drives product configuration, adoption and customer value.

You will be both a builder and an operator. You will recruit and develop the team, design the playbooks and systems that let it scale. You will also be comfortable in front of largest customers, stepping into complex deployments and setting the bar for what great delivery looks like.
