What are the responsibilities and job description for the Growth Strategist (NYC) position at Lyric?
About The Company
Why We Built Lyric: Supply chains are more critical and complex than ever. Every day, large enterprises navigate trillions of possible decisions that could impact the bottom line. Powerful algorithms and AI can address these problems, yet most organizations struggle to leverage supply chain AI at scale. The current SCM technologies are either rigid, limited-scope point solutions or custom solutions built in-house, which demand immense expertise and investment.
That is…until now.
Enter Lyric: Lyric is an enterprise AI platform built specifically for supply chains, offering the best of both worlds:
The Mission: We’re building a new era in supply chain with the team best equipped to lead it. With over 20 years at the intersection of supply chain and algorithms, we developed a deep conviction that global supply chains needed something like Lyric. Since our inception in December 2021, that conviction has been validated time and time again.
Today, a growing number of Fortune 500 companies, including Smurfit WestRock, Estée Lauder, Coca-Cola, and more, are innovating on their own terms with Lyric. We can’t wait to see what our customers, both current and future, are empowered to build with us next. Come build with us!
About The Role
We’re hiring Growth Strategists: high-agency, client-facing professionals who will be the tip of the spear for Lyric’s go-to-market approach. This is not a traditional business development role. You’ll be embedded with senior sales leaders and cross-functional teams, opening new accounts while building real expertise in the enterprise GTM motion.
This role is designed for driven early-career professionals or post-MBA candidates looking to break into a high-growth startup. You don’t need enterprise AI or supply chain experience, just the curiosity and work ethic to learn it fast.
What You’ll Do
We are a remote-first team but have a strong preference for candidates based in Chicago, New York, or the Bay Area, and able to work in-person with other members of our GTM team.
Compensation
The annual base compensation range for this position is $100,000 and $130,000. Base cash will be determined based on years of experience with a 20% variable compensation that is earned based on individual & business performance. You will also have the opportunity to receive equity in Lyric.
Even if you don’t meet 100% of the qualifications, we recommend applying to the role!
Compensation Range: $100K - $130K
