Business Operations Management Program Manager

The Business Operations Management Program Manager is responsible for driving complex, cross-functional initiatives across Deal & Partner Operations.

You will independently navigate complex and evolving requirements, influence without direct authority, and communicate recommendations, progress, and challenges to audiences at multiple levels of the organization.

You will also support organizational readiness and change adoption, strengthen subject-matter expertise across the organization, and use data, business applications, automation, and AI to improve efficiency, decision-making, and communication.

This role reports to the Senior Manager of Business Operations Management and Chief of Staff to the Vice President of Deal & Partner Operations.
