Platform Owner, Lead Generation Laboratory

Cerity Partners is building a data-driven Lead Generation Laboratory to systematically surface, enrich, and route high-quality prospects across the firm. The Platform Owner is the technical and operational backbone of this effort — a dedicated hire who will own the enrichment infrastructure, manage the Lead Lab’s analyst team, and serve as the critical link between data systems and revenue-generating advisors.

This is a build-and-operate role for a technically fluent operator who thrives at the intersection of financial services, CRM systems, and modern data tooling. The Platform Owner will have direct impact on Capital Solutions’ ability to identify new clients and expand wallet share across Cerity Partner’s client base.
