About the role
We are seeking an experienced Vice President, Enterprise Data & Technology to define and own Nexus’s enterprise data strategy, AI enablement, and technology direction. Reporting directly to the Chief Operating Officer, this role sets the vision for the company’s data architecture, warehouse, and platform investments, and translates that vision into a multi-year roadmap prioritized against business value. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who thinks like an owner — comfortable setting strategy and direction, but equally comfortable rolling up their sleeves in a lean, fast-moving environment. The Vice President will lead and grow the data team, including the Senior Manager of Enterprise Data and the company’s data internship program, while directing the company’s AI and automation strategy and championing responsible, effective use of AI agents across the business. The role also carries broad ownership of the company’s data governance, security posture, and IT oversight — setting standards and direction, whether executed directly or through specialists and vendors. The ideal candidate combines strong command of modern BI, analytics, and cloud data platforms with the judgment to prioritize initiatives, the leadership skill to build a high-performing team, and the ability to translate business needs into technical strategy for executive leadership.
