Job Description
Who you are
You have a proven track record in program management, particularly in leading large, cross-team initiatives. Your experience includes managing complex technical programs and ensuring alignment among various stakeholders. You excel in environments with ambiguity and competing priorities, demonstrating strong ownership and accountability for program outcomes.
Your ability to influence without authority is a key strength, allowing you to drive decisions to closure and surface risks early. You possess a strong grasp of program management fundamentals and are adept at managing dependencies across multiple teams. While technical fluency is important, your primary value lies in your stakeholder management skills and your capacity to bring clarity and structure to complex initiatives.
What you'll do
In this role, you will lead end-to-end program management for complex, multi-team technical initiatives, from strategy and planning through execution and delivery. You will be the primary point of contact for senior stakeholders, ensuring that programs are executed effectively and that communication flows smoothly across teams. Your responsibilities will include identifying risks early, course correcting when necessary, and maintaining program structure and continuity.
You will be accountable for driving alignment across engineering, product, and business stakeholders, ensuring that all parties are informed and engaged throughout the program lifecycle. Your role will require you to manage dependencies and facilitate collaboration among teams, enabling them to deliver effectively together. You will also be responsible for providing clarity and momentum in environments characterized by ambiguity and competing priorities.
What we offer
Contentful offers a dynamic work environment where you can make a significant impact on the organization. You will have the opportunity to work with talented professionals across various teams and contribute to the success of strategic programs. We encourage you to apply even if your experience doesn't match every requirement, as we value diverse perspectives and backgrounds.
