Description

Program Manager

The Program Manager works with industry-leading partners and internal stakeholders to manage complex client implementation and product delivery programs. This includes qualification, design, development, production, and commercialization of product features, ranging from those which span multiple regions to new initiatives that have no pre-existing playbook. While the programs are often technology focused, the Program Manager will collaborate cross-functionally with external clients and internal stakeholders across the business and technical organizations. The Program Manager will have oversight of inter-related programs, manage cross-program dependencies and will drive consultation and strategy at a higher-level than can be achieved at the individual project level. This is the perfect role for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment and enjoys sitting at the center of the most exciting company in a quickly growing industry.
