Job Description

Own day-to-day program management for regulatory compliance programs — planning, decision support, action tracking, and executive-ready reporting — bringing structure to ambiguity and clarity to noise. Run the cross-company operating rhythm across legal, privacy, security, engineering, procurement, HR, and business partners to drive timely decisions and accountable execution. Synthesize program health, surface dependencies and execution risks, and escalate with concise options and recommendations — not just problems. Coordinate program planning, evidence tracking, standards updates, issue remediation, and audit-readiness and control-testing activities in a highly matrixed environment. Partner with operational teams to convert regulatory requirements into actionable plans and measurable readiness signals. Maintain an honest data posture — clearly distinguishing validated facts from targets, assumptions, blockers, and items awaiting confirmation. Build reusable PMO mechanisms (templates, dashboards, playbooks) that improve consistency across programs. Help shape our internal compliance-tracking platform — intake, program onboarding, user feedback, issue triage, and alignment between program needs and tooling. Push the frontier of AI-assisted compliance operations: scale agentic workflows, optimize program routines, and find new automation opportunities across the PMO. Apply responsible-AI practices — governance, privacy, security, and human-in-the-loop controls — when deploying AI-enabled tooling. Grow PMs' competence in regulatory compliance, PMO discipline, and the team's tools and operating routines. Create onboarding materials and practical examples that help PMs ramp quickly. Coach PMs on stakeholder management, executive communication, risk framing, and disciplined follow-through in ambiguous environments. Bachelor's Degree in Business, Operations, Finance, or related field AND 4+ years experience in program management, process management, or process improvement OR equivalent experience. Experience leading complex, cross-functional programs in regulatory compliance, risk, governance, audit, privacy, security, or other regulated environments. Experience translating legal, regulatory, policy, or risk requirements into actionable program plans, controls, and measurable readiness indicators. Experience building and operating scalable PMO mechanisms, including governance, risk and dependency management, evidence tracking, dashboards, and executive reporting. Experience influencing senior stakeholders and driving accountability across highly matrixed organizations without direct authority. Experience coordinating audit readiness, control testing, evidence management, and remediation activities. Experience leveraging technology, automation, or AI-enabled workflows to improve program operations while maintaining appropriate governance and oversight. Experience developing reusable program management practices and coaching or mentoring other program managers. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with demonstrated ability to communicate complex regulatory, technical, or operational topics to senior and executive audiences.
