About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

As a Program Manager, lead the end-to-end delivery of data platform and cloud transformation projects or programs, from initiation through delivery to closure.
Manage program level projects with competing priorities while maintaining momentum, quality, and stakeholder alignment.
Translate client business objectives into structured, milestone-based delivery plans with clear acceptance criteria.
Lead and align multidisciplinary teams across data engineering, cloud platforms, governance, QA, DevOps, and business stakeholders.
Coordinate delivery across multiple release waves, ensuring consistency, predictability, and quality at scale.
Enable teams to deliver their best work by providing clarity, structure, and strong delivery leadership.
Own overall project or program health, including feasibility of delivery given scope, timeline, budget, resources, risks, and interdependencies.
Proactively identify and mitigate program-level risks across technology, operations, and organizational change.
Ensure that each milestone and release meets defined quality, governance, validation, and operational readiness standards.
Build trusted relationships with senior client stakeholders, ensuring transparency, clarity, and confidence throughout the engagement.

Requirements

What you’ll need

6-8+ years of experience in program or senior project management within consulting environments, acting as the main client point of contact and confidently managing and setting expectations.
Strong understanding of structured delivery models (Agile, hybrid, or waterfall-based) and managing multiple projects simultaneously with competing priorities.
Advanced experience in project planning, scope management, timelines, resourcing, risk management and budgeting.
Demonstrated experience delivering under fixed-fee or milestone-gated commercial models, including structured acceptance criteria, formal client sign-off mechanics, and change-order discipline when scope or complexity deviates from contract assumptions.
Delivery knowledge of cloud data platform and migration programs (GCP strongly preferred); familiarity with cloud-native architectures, data pipeline patterns, and governance tooling sufficient to make informed delivery decisions, assess technical risk, and engage credibly with platform and engineering stakeholders without requiring full translation from the Technical Lead.
Sufficient data literacy to manage a data-program RAID log independently, understanding pipeline dependencies, data quality risk, governance boundaries between platform tools, and the downstream impact of schema or logic changes on data consumers and dashboards.
Proven ownership of delivery outcomes across multi-country, multi-timezone teams, specifically including accountability for handoff quality, remote team performance, and cross-location dependency management, not limited to stakeholder coordination across geographies.
Experience designing and executing operational transition plans, including knowledge transfer, runbook delivery, and formal handoff to client operations teams or third-party managed service providers at program closeout.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
Exceptional organizational and time management skills.
