The Executive Director leads the DBTL Data & Insights team and works with IT, Salesforce, and data and analytics teams to prioritize DBTL's projects and deliver the program data faculty and chairs need.

- Voice and visibility
- Lead DBTL's voice and visibility work, and convene the Voice and Visibility group
- Own DBTL's content calendar. Work with the Center for Applied Ethics & AI, the Center for the Advancement of Followership, and other Center teams to keep calendars aligned

- Publish DBTL news on LinkedIn and other channels
- Partner with IWU Marketing on brand standards, channels, and campaigns
- Coordinate the event calendar with the Director of School Operations
- Project and portfolio management
- Own the master view of what's in process across new program development, systems work, and student success initiatives
- Run the cadence for that work (intake, prioritization, status, and escalation), so projects move without the Dean having to chase them
- Identify where a project has stalled on a dependency, and get it unstuck
- Report portfolio status and decisions needed to the Dean and the school leadership team
- Undergraduate student success leadership
- Supervise the Director, Undergraduate Program Success, and set annual goals for undergraduate retention, progression, and student experience
- Make sure retention and early-alert data reach the people who can act on it, including the Director, chairs, faculty, and advising
- Partner with the division chairs, who own undergraduate curriculum and faculty, so curriculum and student success work toward shared outcomes
- Advisory Council and external connection
- Support the Dean's preparation, follow-up, and ongoing connection with the DBTL Advisory Council and its subcommittees
- Prepare materials that let council members see DBTL's trajectory in data beyond individual stories
- Support the Dean's external engagement, coordinating handoffs with IWU's partnership and enterprise teams
- School leadership and service
- Serve on the school's leadership team with the Associate Dean, division chairs, and directors
- Serve on School, College, and University committees as assigned, and attend school meetings and commencement exercises

Tips for Your Remote Strategy Director Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote strategy director openings from across the U.S. in one place. Check it regularly and apply directly to roles that match your background before postings close, since remote positions often attract high volume quickly.
Show your async communication on paper
Remote employers judge written communication as a core strategy director skill. Make your resume and any work samples demonstrate clarity and structure, because the ability to align distributed stakeholders through writing is what remote teams actually need from this role.
Highlight self-directed outcomes in your materials
Remote strategy director hiring screens hard for autonomy. Frame your experience around initiatives you drove from problem definition to decision without in-person oversight. Specific outcomes, the stakeholders you influenced remotely, and the tools you used to manage alignment all signal readiness.
Prepare for async interview formats
Many remote-first companies use recorded video screens or written case exercises before live interviews. Practice delivering strategic recommendations clearly in a short recorded format and structuring written frameworks under time pressure, because these formats test skills that matter daily in the role.
Remote Strategy Director Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote strategy director job?
Remote strategy director roles go to candidates who can demonstrate self-direction and strong written communication from day one. Remote-first companies and distributed teams screen for async collaboration skills, the ability to drive cross-functional alignment without in-person meetings, and a record of owning outcomes independently. Concrete evidence of results, a clear strategic framework you use, and fluency with async tools give you a real edge.
Which companies hire remote strategy directors?
Remote strategy director roles are posted by Veeva Systems, Corpay, and Otsuka and others right now, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Remote-first technology firms, distributed professional services companies, and growth-stage startups are among the most consistent hirers of remote strategy directors.
Can you get a remote strategy director job with no experience?
Yes, but remote strategy director roles at the entry level are harder to land because employers expect you to operate independently from the start. Smaller remote-first companies and early-stage startups are more open to developing junior strategic talent. Showing a portfolio of strategic frameworks you have built, problems you have solved, or a clear point of view on a company's competitive position can open doors in the absence of formal experience.
Do you need a degree for remote strategy director jobs?
Not always. Many remote employers weigh demonstrated strategic thinking, measurable business outcomes, and real work over formal credentials. An MBA or related degree helps, especially at larger companies, but a strong portfolio of strategic projects, consulting experience, or a clear history of influencing business decisions can substitute effectively for a degree in remote hiring processes.
Which industries hire the most remote strategy directors?
Most remote strategy director openings sit in Technology & Software, Fintech, and Banking & Financial Services, per current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors hire strategy directors remotely because their teams are already distributed across regions and depend on remote leadership to align priorities and drive decisions without a central office.
