Enablement Lead

Enablement Lead Element451 is the AI-native CRM and agent platform built for higher education. We help colleges and universities modernize engagement, recruitment, enrollment, and student success with intelligent automation and a product customers genuinely love. As our customer base grows, success is defined not just by launching - but by whether teams actually adopt the platform and build durable operating habits around it. This role exists to make Element451 stick. The Role As an Enablement lead, you own the enablement layer of implementation: training, workflow coaching, best practices, and change support that turns a configured system into a team that knows how to run it. You partner closely with the Implementation lead(who owns delivery plan and go-live date). While they drive the master timeline, you drive readiness, confidence, and adoption - the factors that determine whether go-live becomes long-term success.
