Position Summary

In this role, you will have the opportunity to do meaningful work in your career, elevating your craft while contributing to a team that values lifelong learning.

As Director, Industry Practice Lead – Corporate Enterprise, you will serve as Panopto’s trusted domain authority and top-of-funnel growth engine across the enterprise market. Operating as a senior individual contributor reporting directly to the Chief Revenue Officer (CRO), you will bridge corporate talent strategy, workforce enablement, and product capability. You will serve as a sought-after expert in L&D and corporate learning, building peer-level trust with Chief Learning Officers, Heads of Talent, and enterprise IT leaders to open new pipeline and articulate how video-based knowledge management transforms workforce productivity.

You’ll also have opportunities to contribute to other initiatives that directly advance our core values and support you in elevating your craft.

How You’ll Contribute

• Top-of-Funnel Pipeline Creation & Industry Authority: Represent Panopto as a leading voice at major industry conferences (e.g., ATD, DevLearn, HR Tech), executive roundtables, and panel discussions. Activate your executive network to generate trusted top-of-funnel prospects, raise brand awareness, and open new enterprise pipeline.
• Strategic Subject Matter Expertise in Deals: Partner with Account Executives on high-profile pre-sales opportunities as an industry peer and product expert. Seamlessly discuss corporate learning trends, business objectives, and Jobs to Be Done (JTBD) to build buyer confidence without carrying direct deal-closing responsibility.
• Customer Value & Adoption Advisory: Conduct strategic account engagements with existing enterprise customers to evaluate current usage patterns, understand business goals, and prescribe tailored solution strategies that improve adoption, increase platform value, and identify natural expansion opportunities.
• Domain Frameworks & Product Voice: Develop practitioner-focused domain playbooks, usage frameworks, and industry point-of-view content that elevate field conversations. Synthesize field signals on corporate learning challenges, compliance needs, and AI workflows to advise internal Product and Product Marketing teams.

• Your Legacy: Build a scalable, repeatable vertical practice model that elevates Panopto’s market authority and defines domain-led growth.

Values in Action

• Customer First, Always: You proactively surface friction points in the customer experience before they are escalated — and propose solutions, not just reports.
• Thrive Together: You share work-in-progress for early feedback, knowing that challenge improves the outcome. You separate critiques of ideas from critiques of people.
• Elevate the Craft: You hold the bar high on your own work and invest in developing those around you. You treat every project as an opportunity to learn something new.
• Act with Ownership: You define success by outcomes, not activity. You flag problems early and bring a proposed path forward, not just the problem.
• Clarity Over Complexity: You default to the simpler solution. Your written communication — internal or external — is direct, specific, and free of filler.

How We Thrive

At Panopto, we believe in simple elegance in everything we do. We do not just talk about accountability; we live it. You will be joining a collaborative team of seasoned Account Executives and Revenue leaders who are deeply embedded in the enterprise sector.

As Director, Industry Practice Lead, you will be the bridge between technical capability and business transformation.
