What You’ll Do

The Program Manager owns the program of related technology initiatives for a single business domain. For this position, the domain is two shared programs: Ascent's customer-facing shipment visibility platform, which serves every business unit, and the final-mile business unit and its operating application. The Program Manager aligns that work to the domain's strategic objectives and carries it from framing through delivery and benefits realization. It is a strategic, hands-on role: the Program Manager is the connective owner across the domain's initiatives, the primary partner to its business sponsors, and the internal IT subject-matter expert for the domain's applications, with agentic AI as primary leverage. The core of the role is translating business needs into a clear, sequenced program roadmap that product owners and delivery teams can build against.

Business Need to Program Roadmap

• Understand how the business units operate and how the platforms are used by employees and customers, so requests are evaluated against how the work is done.
• Work with the business to define the current state, the target state and the process change in between before a build begins, so requirements reflect the real workflow rather than assumptions.
• Turn business needs into outcome statements, scope and sequencing on the program roadmap; make the trade-offs visible and get them decided.

Cross-Initiative Coordination and Dependencies

• Manage interdependencies across the domain initiatives and across the IT delivery teams, so the program advances.
• Coordinate timing, handoffs, and sequencing across initiatives; surfacing conflicts early.
• Governance and Reporting
• Run the program's governance and cadence: decisions, transparency, and status to sponsors and leadership.
• Champion PMO methodology and standards to ensure consistency across the program.

Benefits Realization

• Determine the business value of program initiatives based on defined outcomes.
• Provide visibility into progress toward program outcomes and value delivery

Business UAT Engagement (major and higher-risk projects)

• Identify, recruit, and engage business UAT testers.
• Responsible for UAT schedule and milestones; UAT team owns validation protocols and sign-off.

Stakeholder and Program Risk

• Own the sponsor and stakeholder relationship for the domain and keep expectations aligned as the program evolves.
• Manage program change management communication to promote clear, timely messaging about what is changing and when.
• Track program-level risks and issues and escalate to the appropriate level with context, options, and a recommendation.

Agentic AI

• Use AI to draft plans, status, and reporting, accelerate program documentation, and reduce routine coordination overhead.

What You’ll Bring

• 7+ years managing programs or large, cross-functional initiatives, ideally within a PMO.

• Strong command of program governance, dependency management, and benefits realization.
• Experience partnering with senior business stakeholders to align technology outputs with business outcomes.
• Strong executive communication skills: able to brief senior leaders concisely, present options and recommendations, and communicate key decision points for leaders to act on.
• Proven ability to translate business needs into program roadmaps: outcome statements, scope, actionable plans for sequencing and trade-offs that product owners and delivery teams.
• Strong experience in logistics or supply chain, including time spent in or supporting an operation’s role and its business processes.
• Working knowledge of Agile and structured delivery methods.
• Demonstrated fluency using AI tools to accelerate program and reporting work.
• Bachelor's degree in a related field; PMP, PgMP, PRINCE2, or similar certification preferred.
