Position Summary...

Sam’s Club is building the future of intelligent, digitally powered clubs — and the Omni Club Transformation team sits at the center of that evolution. We’re looking for a seasoned Director-level leader with strong product and business acumen who can step in quickly and accelerate our work on digital twins, AI-driven simulations, and intelligent data fabric.

In this role, you’ll partner deeply with Product, Tech, Real Estate, and multiple operational teams to create digital replicas of Sam’s Club environments, run complex simulations, and transform how our clubs operate — from workforce optimization to smart shelf labeling. This is an opportunity to influence strategy, present to leaders, and guide next-generation approaches that directly reshape the member and associate experience.

This is a Bentonville-based role (relocation required) for someone energized by ambiguity, innovation, and cross-functional leadership.

What you'll do...

  • Build and refine digital twins of Sam’s Club environments, integrating signals, models, and operational assumptions.
  • Run simulations to test new technologies, staffing models, productivity scenarios, and operational changes before real-world deployment.
  • Partner with Product, Tech, Real Estate, and Workforce Planning to align inputs, validate assumptions, and guide business decision-making.
  • Present clear, strategic insights and recommendations to senior leaders.
  • Provide director-level leadership, ensuring continuity of work, team clarity, and cross-functional alignment.
  • Use simulation insights to shape how Sam’s Club designs and deploys large-scale innovations, helping determine what “great” looks like before a single dollar is invested.
 

What you’ll bring...

  • Strong product and business leadership experience, with the ability to understand how digital solutions drive operational and member outcomes.
  • Experience working with data-informed or tech-enabled products — comfortable navigating models, signals, and insights without needing to be overly technical.
  • Proven Director-level leadership, including managing teams, organizing workstreams, and driving clarity in complex environments.
  • Exceptional communication and executive presence, able to simplify complexity and present strategy to senior leaders with confidence.
  • Systems-thinking skills — comfortable shaping assumptions, interpreting models, and translating operational needs into actionable insights.
  • Demonstrated cross-functional leadership, especially partnering across Product, Tech, Real Estate, and key operational teams.
  • High ownership mindset and urgency, with the ability to step in quickly and deliver impact immediately.
