Job Description
What you get to do in this role:
Operate as the program-management engine of Marketing's planning system and turn organizational problems into solutions. When a cross-functional gap surfaces (for example, "we can't measure ROI because spend data is unreliable"), you'll run intake, drive root-cause analysis, draft the problem statement, and build a first-cut solution and proposal for leadership review.
Run the mechanics of the planning operating rhythm (MOR, QBR, Monthly Forecast, OKR updates). Agendas land ahead of time, pre-reads are tight, decisions get logged, and follow-ups don't drop.
Implement scalable processes that help us plan and manage work spanning Strategy, Resources, and Governance. You'll be the forcing function that gets cross-team process work done on schedule, working alongside the functional owners who execute it.
Identify connections and reconcile possible collisions across planning inputs, cycles, and cross-functional dependencies with BizOps, GTM Ops, Analytics, and FP&A.
Ensure transparency, alignment, and clear communication of planning status, decisions, and cycle milestones across Marketing leadership and cross-functional partners.
You'll gather the business requirements for our planning data layer (spend data, aggregated investment views, program-to-headcount views), define the end-to-end build plan, and drive it to completion across the owning teams. You own the requirements and the timeline. you are not the builder.

Preferred Qualifications:
Experience using or critically thinking about how to integrate AI into work processes, decision-making, or problem-solving. This may include using AI-powered tools, automating workflows, analyzing AI-driven insights, or exploring AI's potential impact on the function.
7+ years of project/program management experience in mid/large size companies, ideally in a marketing, GTM, or operations environment.
Drives programs without authority: gets senior, cross-functional stakeholders to commit and hit dates without owning them.
Converts ambiguity into structure. Takes a vague "this is broken" and produces a sharp problem statement, options, and a proposal.
Business fluency to spec, not to execute: reads a budget and variance view and understands ROI logic well enough to define what analytics and finance need. Does not need to be a finance or analytics expert.
Models change-agent behavior by coaching peers to buy in, and by communicating new scalable solutions that improve execution across the organization.
Educates cross-functional peers about the planning discipline and advocates for its value.
