Board of Innovation is a global independent collective of strategists, designers, and tech pioneers. We lead the charge in AI-powered innovation and we’re looking for a Senior Business Designer in NYC, who is driven by our resolute mission to make what life needs next.

Our culture is forward-thinking, built on the pillars of intellectual curiosity, an originator & experimenter mindset, all fueled by the power of AI and fortified by exceptional business acumen.

Our values should tell you something about how we roll and we look for genuine alignment on these - it’s a non negotiable.

  • Make it personal: help others. Be yourself. Leave your ego at the door.
  • Make it better: think, and think again. Raise the bar. Listen, learn, share, repeat.
  • Make it happen: be entrepreneurial. No buzzwords, no theater. Ideas are nice, but impact is everything.

What’s in it for you?

You’ll be working with a global, diverse team of smart, creative people with hacker mindsets and an entrepreneurial approach. Check out some of our team on Linkedin, to spark your curiosity - Geoff, Monte, Natasha, Kahini. If you like a challenge this is the place for you.

What does success look like from the inside?

Our entrepreneurial talent is one of the biggest drivers for our growth which doesn’t vibe too well with very rigid job descriptions.

We anticipate that you will be acknowledged by both your clients and colleagues as a valuable contributor, showcasing a genuine spirit of experimentation in all matters pertaining to AI, strategy, and the development of value propositions.

You anticipate problems and galvanise teams to solve them. You care about the work and the clients in a way that people buy into.
  • Project management: You effectively prioritize own work and keep the team informed on progress. On smaller projects, you deliver work on time & effectively manage priorities. You understand the factors that contribute to project profitability and can make and implement recommendations to optimise.
  • Self driven learning: You are seen as a partner by clients in their area of specialism. You are fluent in the BOI proposition/strategy/offering and you communicate this externally in ways that engage clients/candidates. 
  • Business development: You contribute to business development efforts by spotting upsell opportunities on your project. You make introductions to potential prospects within client companies. You will have a clear understanding of our our sales process and show ability to contribute to proposals and pitches in ways that convince clients and win exciting new work.
