Head of AI Transformation
Lansweeper has spent 21 years adapting to market shifts. The AI era is the largest shift yet — and we are ahead of most. AI adoption is complete. The vast majority of our employees actively use AI tools. Engineering runs an AI-native development lifecycle. Early automation has delivered material savings.
Now we enter the next phase in our journey to become an AI-native organization: AI industrialization.
Our 5-year plan requires significant revenue expansion on modest headcount growth. That only works if AI becomes embedded in our operating model — across workflows, governance, decision-making, measurement, and enterprise infrastructure.
As Head of AI Transformation you build and lead our company-wide AI operating model in close collaboration with the departmental AI Ops leaders. You drive AI strategy execution, AI governance, AI measurement, and AI-native transformation at scale.
This is a newly created, global leadership role at the center of our AI transformation.
Challenge:
The main challenges you'll face are:
-
Turning high AI adoption into measurable operating leverage (output per person, cycle time, cost-to-serve).
- Designing a scalable AI governance framework (EU AI Act aligned) without slowing innovation.
- Leading cross-functional AI transformation without direct authority over departmental AI Ops leaders.
Key Responsibilities:
AI Strategy & AI Operating Model
-
Co-define and maintain the company-wide AI strategy, aligned with ExCo, other AI leaders and embedded into departmental plans.
- Build and run the AI operating model (hub-and-spoke structure). You will run the hub.
-
Coordinate the AI Steering Committee (Engineering, Product, GTM, HR, Finance, Legal, Security, IT).
- Prepare and consolidate the monthly AI performance update for ExCo and Board via the COO.
- Coordinate the internal network of departmental AI Ops leaders to ensure alignment, leverage, and shared standards.
AI Governance & Responsible AI
-
Instrument the AI governance operating model: decision rights, cadence, escalation paths, consolidated risk view.
- Define company-wide requirements for approved AI tools, IP protection, data leakage prevention, shadow AI monitoring, and responsible AI usage in close collaboration with the security officer.
- Design the governance model for employee-built AI tools (prototype-to-production framework).
- Maintain working knowledge of the EU AI Act and other applicable regulations; partner with Legal on compliance posture.
AI Infrastructure & Tooling Convergence
-
Partner with Data/IT and business stakeholder to establish and maintain the enterprise AI context layer and knowledge infrastructure.
- Define the decision framework for AI tooling convergence and AI platform evaluation.
- Stand up a global AI skills-sharing mechanism to reuse AI workflows safely across teams.
- Coordinate evaluation and recommendation of new AI models and enterprise AI platforms.
AI Measurement & Operating Leverage
-
Own the AI measurement framework connecting AI initiatives to business impact
-
Make AI performance data visible and actionable for ExCo and department leaders.
- Surface blockers and decision points required to unlock the next phase of AI-native scale.
AI Enablement (in partnership with HR)
-
Partner with HR on AI training programs (Responsible AI, workflow automation, function-specific AI fluency).
- Integrate AI capability into hiring, onboarding, and performance conversations.
- Drive enablement-first accountability across the organization.
Key Requirements:
Hard skills:
-
10+ years in (AI) transformation, strategy execution, operational leadership, or enterprise transformation within SaaS.
- Proven experience building an (AI) operating model, governance framework, or transformation program from scratch.
- Demonstrated hands-on experience using LLMs, AI automation, AI workflows, or AI-native systems.

- High ambiguity tolerance with structured decision-making capability.
Our Offer:
-
Hybrid working model from our Austin (US) or Merelbeke (BE) office.
- Global, high-impact Director role reporting directly to the COO.
