Vice President of Enterprise Program Management

Job Description

About the Role

At enterprise scale, execution is a strategic advantage. We are seeking a Vice President of Enterprise Program Management to lead the governance, orchestration, and delivery of the company’s most critical, cross-functional initiatives and programs that shape strategy, modernize operations, and materially impact long-term performance.

This role sits at the center of the organization’s transformation agenda. The VP will own the enterprise execution model, ensuring that strategic priorities translate into disciplined delivery across technology, product, operations, finance, and commercial teams. This includes overseeing complex, multi-year programs spanning digital modernization, AI adoption, platform transformation, operating-model redesign, and global scale initiatives.

The Vice President will build and lead an enterprise-grade program management organization, establishing governance, standards, investment discipline, and performance transparency at scale. Acting as a trusted partner to the CEO, C-suite, and Board, this leader ensures that the organization executes with clarity, speed, and accountability in a highly complex environment.

This is not a PMO caretaker role. It is a mandate to professionalize execution at the highest level, embed execution rigor into leadership culture, and deliver measurable outcomes that accelerate growth, efficiency, and enterprise value.

• Present progress, outcomes, and strategic recommendations to executive committees and the Board.

Job Qualifications and Requirements

• 15+ years of experience in enterprise program management, transformation leadership, or large-scale execution roles.

• Proven success leading complex, cross-functional initiatives within large, global organizations.

• Deep experience building enterprise PMO or execution governance models at scale.

• Strong understanding of digital transformation, AI-enabled programs, and technology-driven change.

• Demonstrated ability to influence C-suite leaders and align diverse stakeholders.

• Exceptional financial and operational acumen, including value realization and ROI tracking.

• Highly analytical, structured, and outcomes-oriented.

• Calm, decisive leader who performs well in complex, high-pressure environments.

• Exceptional communicator capable of simplifying complexity for executive audiences.

• Strong people leader focused on accountability, development, and performance.

Strategic Support

• Serve as a core advisor to the CEO, COO, CFO, and executive leadership team on execution strategy.

• Support enterprise planning cycles, transformation roadmaps, and capital allocation decisions.
