Responsibilities
- Own and continuously evolve the PMO’s central project intake processes, managing numerous incoming workflows from business and marketing teams and ensuring each is routed and scoped with clarity
- Drive prioritization and trade-off discussions across competing initiatives, balancing senior leadership vision with working-level constraints and execution-team capacity
- Identify and implement AI-driven solutions across the work the PMO touches — brief writing and review, project roadmapping, prioritization, status tracking, and hand-offs
- Lead change management and communications as the marketing organization adopts new AI-enabled processes, tools, and ways of working — driving adoption, not just rollout
- Anticipate cross-functional dependencies and provide clear status of initiatives from working groups up to senior leadership, ensuring on-time, on-scope delivery
- Establish and track program KPIs, milestones, and success metrics, including two-sided SLAs between strategy and execution teams, with clear and actionable reporting to leadership

Skills
- 7+ years of Program and Project Management experience, including a background in program management within a marketing organization and a track record delivering for large, cross-functional teams
- A holistic, ownership-minded thinker who takes an idea or process and iterates and evolves it over time rather than simply maintaining it
- Decisive yet nuanced in prioritization and trade-off calls, comfortable making and defending decisions amid ambiguity
- Demonstrates AI-first thinking, with demonstrable success adopting AI-driven solutions to automate or streamline processes and workflows
- Thrives in a fast-paced, highly-matrixed environment, bringing structure to ambiguous problems in a complex organization
- An excellent communicator and facilitator who synthesizes complex information into clear narratives, with proven strength in organizational change management
