Role Summary and Impact
We are seeking a Director, AI Enablement to oversee enablement activities across a portfolio of client accounts within the Open Media Studio ecosystem. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a hands-on environment, working closely with clients, agencies, and internal teams to drive adoption, engagement, and measurable value from WPP Media products. You will be responsible for ensuring that enablement plans are executed effectively, that client teams are trained and supported, and that feedback loops are established to continuously improve the client experience.

- Collaboration & Liaison: Act as the primary enablement contact for your cluster, connecting clients with product, engineering, and data strategy teams. Gather and relay client feedback to inform product improvements and roadmap priorities. Coordinate with regional enablement peers to share learnings and ensure consistency across accounts.
- Cross-Studio Integration & Ownership: Where required, facilitate integration with the Open team on cross-studio deployments, ensuring seamless coordination between Open Media Studio and other WPP studios within client workflows. Uphold governance models for cross-studio global client solutions, eliminating operational gaps and inefficiencies. Represent OMS Enablement in relevant cross-studio workstreams (e.g., pilots, joint initiatives) to drive alignment, accelerate deployment readiness, and ensure consistent, high-quality execution across markets.
- Performance Tracking & Reporting: Monitor adoption metrics, engagement levels, and client satisfaction within your cluster. Identify trends and areas for improvement, and work with the regional enablement led to adjust strategies accordingly.
- Support for Growth & Retention: Assist in new business pitches and client retention efforts by showcasing OMS capabilities. Develop enablement materials, case studies, and success stories that highlight value delivered to clients.
Skills and Experience
- Experience in client enablement, customer success, or training within a technology or data-driven organization.
- Strong understanding of technology platforms and ability to act as a confident product advocate.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build trust and influence stakeholders.
