Director, Enterprise PMO
Enterprise is a national nonprofit that exists to make a good home possible for the millions of families without one. We support community development organizations on the ground, aggregate and invest capital for impact, advance housing policy at every level of government, and build and manage communities ourselves. Since 1982, we have invested $92.0 billion and created 1.1 million homes across all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands – all to make home and community places of pride, power and belonging.
About the role
Strategy & Operations (StratOps) is a newly established function within the Office of the Chief Operating and Financial Officer (COFO). It helps Enterprise prioritize, resource, govern, and deliver its most important cross-divisional work — bringing together project management, portfolio management, execution, and resource allocation in one place, without replacing division or Shared Services ownership. StratOps focuses the organization on a defined set of strategic priorities that require coordination, tradeoffs, and sustained execution.
It has three areas of focus:
- Enterprise PMO: Leads enterprise prioritization and portfolio management, drives implementation of the Strategic Plan, and leads enterprise-wide special projects
- Innovation Fund: Governs how Enterprise invests capital from an internal innovation fund to bring its most promising mission-driven ideas to scale
- Shared Services PMO: Provides portfolio management, project management, and execution support across Enterprise’s corporate Shared Services functions — such as Finance, Treasury, IT, and Enterprise Risk Management
Based in New York, this is a hybrid role. The Director, Enterprise PMO leads the Enterprise PMO vertical within Enterprise’s new Strategy & Operations function and is responsible for enterprise prioritization, portfolio management, and the systems and processes that translate strategy into structured, actionable work. Supporting the function’s leader in driving Strategic Plan delivery, the Director runs the operating cadence that keeps implementation on track — maintaining an enterprise-wide view of execution, surfacing risks, tradeoffs, and decisions, and preparing the function to update the Strategic Leadership Council (quarterly) and the COFO, CEO, and Executive Leadership Team (regularly) on progress and where action is needed. This role calls for someone who can operate at the enterprise level, shape priorities and tradeoffs, and bring the judgment to navigate ambiguity, while also building the systems and rhythms that turn strategy into execution.
Responsibilities
- Lead the enterprise prioritization and portfolio management process across initiatives
- Build the tools, systems, and processes that facilitate prioritization and portfolio management
- Prepare quarterly strategy reporting for Strategic Leadership Council meetings — reviewing progress of strategy implementation against the Strategic Plan and facilitating portfolio decisions
- Prepare updates and reporting for the COFO, CEO, and Executive Leadership Team on the status of strategy implementation more broadly — surfacing priorities, tradeoffs, risks, and decisions, and coordinating across divisions to source and align inputs
- Establish governance, tools, reporting, and change management approaches to support adoption of strategic and operational work
- Serve as people manager for shared execution resources, deploying capacity in alignment with the department leader’s priorities across the function’s work
- Oversee execution across select high-priority, cross-divisional special projects, including driving adoption and change management where needed
- Ensure alignment between prioritization, innovation fund investments, and execution tracking
Qualifications
- 8–12+ years of experience in strategy, transformation, enterprise PMO, or cross-functional leadership
- Experience leading enterprise-level initiatives and portfolio management in complex organizations
- Entrepreneurial builder’s mindset — energized by operationalizing frameworks, building the tools and systems that bring them to life, and refining them over time, and comfortable operating in a function that is still taking shape
- Strong ability to translate strategy into structured execution (systems, governance, tools, and operating rhythms) and bring clarity and structure in complex, evolving environments
- Proven track record supporting executive decision-making and facilitating tradeoffs
- Experience building or operating enterprise PMO systems or portfolio management processes
- Experience building or developing teams of shared execution resources preferred
- Strong communication and executive presentation skills, with high judgment, adaptability, and the ability to operate in ambiguity, across multiple stakeholders without direct authority, and across multiple workstreams in a fast-paced environment
- Proven ability to engage, influence, and build trust with senior leaders
- Advanced proficiency in PowerPoint and Excel, with the ability to produce executive-ready materials and analysis
- Proficiency using AI tools to work more efficiently and elevate the quality of outputs
