Data & Analytics
With data rapidly moving to the center of the universe for most companies, it is highly likely you will hire a Chief Data or AI Officer soon. These high-value executives are technical, innovative, and business-focused. They are good at building relationships across the enterprise and are effective cross-functional leaders. They are as comfortable weighing in on data architecture as collaborating with customers about new AI solutions. Some CDOs lean technical and others lean strategy. The role is new enough that executive committees must be crystal clear on the goals of this hire before developing the target profile.
Data leadership is our niche
At Heller, we proudly placed our first Chief Data Officer in 200, well before the role found its way to the executive table. Our initial placements were data integration leaders for visionary CEOs and CIOs who understood that clean data meant growth. From there, we expanded our data practice to meet the massive spike in data leadership needs across virtually every industry. Today, we place Chief AI Officers, Chief Data Officers, and their engineering leaders. With the entire talent market eager to showcase their AI skills, we know that a deep technology foundation is key to an AI leadership profile.
