Sr Program Manager

Description

We are looking for an experienced Sr Program Manager to lead complex technical initiatives. This opportunity is ideal for a strategic program leader who can connect business priorities with execution, keep multiple workstreams moving forward, and communicate effectively with both technical teams and senior stakeholders. The right candidate will bring strong delivery discipline, financial and schedule oversight, and a proactive approach to resolving risks and aligning cross-functional teams.

Responsibilities:

Direct large-scale technical programs from initiation through completion, ensuring objectives, timelines, and outcomes remain aligned with organizational goals.

Partner with business leaders, delivery teams, and technical stakeholders to maintain clear communication, drive decisions, and support successful execution across the full program lifecycle.

Build and manage comprehensive program roadmaps, milestone plans, interdependencies, and deliverables using established project management practices.

Oversee integrated schedules across concurrent initiatives, monitoring progress and adjusting priorities to keep workstreams on track.

Track budget performance, resource utilization, and forecasting data to support informed planning and responsible program management.

Anticipate delivery challenges by evaluating risks, issues, and dependencies, then implement mitigation strategies before they affect timelines or scope.

Prepare and present program updates, executive summaries, and key performance insights to leadership and stakeholder groups.

Lead recurring meetings, technical discussions, and alignment sessions that promote accountability, clarity, and forward momentum.

Support team effectiveness by advising on staffing priorities, mentoring less experienced project professionals, and recommending process improvements that strengthen delivery consistency.

Requirements

At least 5 years of experience in program management, technical program leadership, project management, or a closely related role.
Demonstrated success managing multiple complex initiatives at the same time across business and technical environments.
Strong knowledge of project delivery frameworks, governance practices, and structured program execution methods.
Experience overseeing schedules, budgets, forecasts, resource planning, and stakeholder communications for large initiatives.
Background leading cross-functional teams in technology, software, engineering, or systems-driven organizations.
Practical experience with risk, issue, and dependency management in fast-paced project settings.
Excellent analytical, organizational, written, verbal, and presentation skills.
