Описание вакансии

At NiCE, we don’t limit our challenges. We challenge our limits. Always. We’re ambitious. We’re game changers. And we play to win. We set the highest standards and execute beyond them. And if you’re like us, we can offer you the ultimate career opportunity that will light a fire within you.

So, what’s the role all about?

A NiCE AI Transformation Strategist sits at the intersection of enterprise strategy and hands-on AI agent delivery. You will primarily engage at the VP and Director level — with CX, Operations, Technology, and Digital leaders — to define transformation priorities and drive execution, while maintaining the executive fluency to contribute credibly in C-suite conversations when required. This is not a narrowly specialized role. You are expected to move fluidly between strategic advisory and agent development, combining structured problem-solving, conversational design, and customer insight to drive transformation from the program office to the build environment.

Core mandate:Partner with VP and Director-level leaders across CX, Operations, and Technology to define and execute AI-first transformation programs while directly building the agentic experiences that make that transformation real, leveraging NiCE's full platform to automate service, augment the workforce, and deliver intelligent experiences at enterprise scale.

+ Workforce augmentation: equipping employees with real-time AI intelligence to elevate performance and decision-making

+ Cloud transformation and on-premises to CXone migration strategy and execution

+ Operating model redesign, front and back office convergence, and workflow orchestration

+ Interaction analytics and real-time intelligence deployment
