CircleCI is growing and needs your program and project management leadership skills to accelerate growth. As our Senior Program Manager you will join our G&A team, entrusted to deliver core Legal, Finance, Accounting, Payroll, and People services with quality, consistency, and empathy. These services and products need scaling and a thoughtful project integration artist who understands scope, sequencing, timing, and resourcing across multiple projects to improve company operations. Your role will be to develop and lead cross-departmental initiatives and projects that align G&A execution efforts.

You’ll be on point for an 18-month roadmap of projects that span across policy and process improvements and will participate in a systems build out that supports our plans to scale.

You will work with a small team of project managers to assist with guiding the transformation of the business. Critical to your success is developing tools and methods for others to use as practitioners across the function to lead their own projects with your mentorship and support. Your job will be to ensure all the trains run on time and to build a project management competence across the organization.

What you’ll do:

• Develop cross departmental and intra-company project plans
• Provide summary reporting to CFO and other CxOs on projects health and status on cross-company initiatives

• Have run cross-company initiatives that include G&A functions while working together to lead through a large scale change or annual project/initiative
• Outstanding reporter - understand what needs to be communicated to whom and the right level of detail
• Practiced interpersonal skills to build alliances and networks of supporters
• Able negotiator to help people through change management
• Effective change agent in driving awareness, desire, knowledge, ability and the reinforcement bespoke for effective change management
• You geek out on project management subject areas and practices, but can apply just enough structure to get the job done!

• Bachelor's Degree preferred
