Strategic Program Lead

Key Responsibilities

• Maintain the master program plan connecting all five Commercial Excellence pillars — Business Process, Governance & Operating Model, Organizational Excellence, Data & Performance, and AI & Automation — including milestones, cross-pillar dependencies and risk log
• Apply advanced project management methodology to enterprise-wide, cross-functional initiatives, from scoping through to benefits realization
• Run the monthly business review cadence with clear, consistent status reporting
• Follow up with initiative owners on committed deliverables and drive open items through to closure, without taking over their ownership
• Bring strong end-to-end process understanding to spot cross-pillar risks and challenge solution design, not only track dates
• Prepare executive and investor-ready status reporting, clearly distinguishing progress from plan across the full portfolio
• Act as the primary point of contact for cross-functional stakeholders on overall program status and escalations

• Master's degree in Business Administration, Engineering, Information Systems or a related field
• 5–8 years of experience in advanced Program or Project Management within a complex, international organization, ideally certified (PMP, Prince2, PgMP or equivalent)
• Very strong, hands-on project management skillset — planning, dependency and risk management, governance cadence — proven on enterprise-wide programs
• Deep, genuine understanding of end-to-end business processes across functions, not limited to one domain
• Proven track record running executive-level status reporting
• Strong analytical, communication and stakeholder management skills with a hands-on, results-oriented mindset
• Comfortable driving accountability across initiative owners without formal authority over their workstreams, in a fast-moving, Private Equity-owned environment

• Fast, decision-led environment backed by Private Equity ownership — no legacy bureaucracy
• A tight-knit, four-person Digital & Commercial Excellence team with high autonomy and visibility to executive management
