The Role – Why This Is Different

This is not a traditional EAM Digital Transformation Lead role.

The EAM Digital Transformation Lead is a hybrid of Customer Success Leader + EAM Digital Transformation / Value Consultant.

Your mission begins after implementation—owning Value 360 realization, ensuring customers translate usage into financial outcomes, and sustaining those outcomes through governance, operating rhythm, and change management.

You will act as a trusted advisor to plant leadership, reliability heads, and operations executives, driving measurable results such as:

• Maintenance cost reduction
• Increased wrench time & schedule compliance
• Backlog reduction
• Improved asset uptime
• Workforce productivity gains
• EBITDA expansion

How You Will Make An Impact.

1. Value 360 Ownership & Financial Impact Realization

Own post-go-live value realization for a portfolio of large, global enterprise customers.

Lead Value 360 programs translating Innovapptive adoption into quantified business outcomes.

• Build and present value cases, ROI models, and EBITDA impact summaries for C-level and VP stakeholders.
• Track, govern, and continuously expand realized value across sites, plants, and user personas.

2. Deep EAM / Maintenance & Reliability-Led Transformation

• Act as a domain authority across:
  • Work Identification
  • Planning & Scheduling
  • Execution
  • Closure
  • Preventive & Predictive Maintenance
• Partner with plant maintenance leaders, planners, schedulers, supervisors, and reliability engineers.
• Diagnose operational inefficiencies and align Innovapptive workflows to industry best practices.
• Guide customers on backlog reduction, downtime avoidance, and workforce productivity improvement.

3. Adoption Strategy & Operational Change Management

• Analyze usage data, workflow adherence, ticket patterns, and adoption blockers.
• Convert insights into prescriptive adoption playbooks and operating cadences.
• Drive frontline behavior change through persona-based enablement and governance.
• Ensure Innovapptive becomes embedded into daily execution, not treated as a tool.

4. Executive Engagement & Governance

• Own QBRs / MBRs focused on value realization—not feature reviews.
• Facilitate executive-level conversations linking operational metrics to financial outcomes.
• Establish governance models to sustain value realization across multi-site deployments.
• Act as the primary escalation owner for value, adoption, and outcome-related risks.

5. Cross-Functional Orchestration

Work closely with:

• Product & Engineering – feedback on gaps, defects, and roadmap priorities rooted in customer impact
• Professional Services – ensure handover completeness and value continuity
• Support – resolve systemic issues impacting adoption and outcomes
• Sales & Account Executives – support renewals, expansions, and value-backed growth motions
• Be the voice of the customer’s operational reality inside Innovapptive.

6. Renewals, Expansion & Growth Enablement

• Own renewal readiness by proving realized value well before renewal cycles.
• Identify expansion opportunities across:
  • Additional plants / sites
  • New personas (operations, warehouse, reliability)
  • Additional Innovapptive module
  • Partner with Sales to support value-based upsell and cross-sell motions.

7. Customer Advocacy & Thought Leadership

Develop customer champions and executive sponsors.

• Identify and support case studies, reference accounts, and value storytelling.
• Represent customer success stories internally and externally.

What You Bring to the Team

Required Experience & Background

• 8–12 years of experience across:
  • Customer Success
  • Value Consulting
  • Digital Transformation
  • EAM / Maintenance & Reliability leadership
• Strong hands-on experience with EAM / ERP systems (SAP PM preferred; Maximo a plus).
• Proven ability to translate operational improvements into financial outcomes.
• Experience working with large, asset-intensive enterprises across multiple plants.
• Comfortable engaging with plant leaders, reliability heads, and executive stakeholders.
• Strong analytical skills—able to connect data, workflows, and outcomes.
• Experience in SaaS or industrial digital platforms preferred.

Core Competencies

• Deep understanding of maintenance & reliability operating models
• Strong executive communication and storytelling skills
• Ability to influence without authority
• Structured problem-solving and value articulation
• High ownership mindset—drives outcomes, not activity
• Comfortable operating in ambiguity and fast-paced environments
• Customer-obsessed, value-first orientation

Why This Role Matters

This role sits at the intersection of product, operations, and financial value.

You are not measured by NPS alone—you are measured by real-world impact.

If you want to:

Be accountable for customer EBITDA outcomes

• Operate as a trusted advisor, not a support function
• Shape how industrial enterprises modernize frontline execution. This role is built for you.
