Full job description

About the Role

We are seeking a highly organized, senior-level Program/Project Manager to lead a major enterprise initiative centralizing 4–5 core systems across a global organization. This program touches 80+ areas and groups, spanning funding, network, HR systems, privacy, modeling, and remittance functions. The team today operates as independent regional workstreams; this role exists to unify those workstreams, drive consistency, and instill program-wide discipline. HR is the primary stakeholder for this initiative.

This is not a role for someone who waits to be directed. You will come in with a point of view, immediately establish structure, and hold a global set of stakeholders accountable to it.


What You'll Do

• Bring together historically siloed regional workstreams and create a consistent operating rhythm across the program.

• Coordinate regional remits across a global organization, ensuring alignment between local execution and program-wide goals.

• Manage and coordinate the Steering Group(s) and approximately 5 working groups, including agendas, materials, and follow-through.

• Own governance: documentation, action items, dependencies, decisions, and overall program structure.

• Ensure JIRA is consistently updated, well-documented, and maintained as the single source of truth for program status.

• Take ownership of accountability across teams — proactively identify what's falling through the cracks and close the gap.

• Partner closely with senior stakeholders, including HR leadership, presenting status, risks, and decisions clearly and credibly.

• Apply Agile methodology and rigor to a large-scale enterprise implementation with many concurrent, interdependent workstreams.


What We're Looking For

• Strong Program/Project Management experience, ideally in a hybrid capacity.

• Proven experience on a large-scale enterprise or global system implementation, with an understanding of the complexity involved.

• Deep working expertise in JIRA and Agile methodologies.

• HR transformation or HR technology experience strongly relevant; exposure to systems such as SuccessFactors, ADP, and/or Qualtrics is a plus.

• Experience establishing governance frameworks, steering committees, and working groups from the ground up.

• Track record managing global and regional stakeholders, including at senior/executive levels.

• Exceptionally organized, detail-oriented, and proactive — comfortable holding others accountable without being asked.

• Polished communication style; equally effective in a working session and in front of senior leadership.

• ADP

• Qualtrics
