Program Managers serve as coordinators and supervisors between multiple projects. They help ensure that each of the projects remains aligned with a company or organization’s overall business goal. They analyze program risk, work with the marketing team to discover the best marketing strategies and develop a budget and operating plan for the program.

Program Managers work in different industries, including construction, manufacturing and tech sectors, but most jobs require that candidates for the position have several years of experience managing teams and complex projects. Unlike project management, program management typically last longer and is often associated with a company’s financial calendar, like annual results.
