About the role

We're seeking a strategic, highly organized Program Manager to lead the operational backbone for Asana's incubation motions across new product lines.

Responsibilities

  • Design, launch, and continuously improve the process to engage overlay sales teams across new product lines, including clear entry criteria, required context, routing rules, and escalation paths
  • Define, document, and maintain rules of engagement across incubation teams and broader field teams so ownership, handoffs, and responsibilities are explicit
  • Partner with GMs and incubation leaders to stand up dashboards and reporting that help leadership understand what is working, what is not, and where intervention is needed
  • Own capacity tracking across incubation roles and products so leaders have visibility into coverage, utilization, and bottlenecks
  • Create and maintain field communications across incubation products, including guidance on when to engage the incubation team, what support is available, and how processes evolve over time
  • Partner closely with Sales Ops, Finance, Customer Success, Product Marketing, and field leadership to ensure incubation motions are measurable, aligned, and scalable
  • Surface operational risks, repeated failure modes, and process breakdowns early, then drive practical fixes that improve execution without creating unnecessary overhead

  • 5+ years of experience in program management, business operations, strategy and operations, GTM operations, or a similar cross-functional operating role in a B2B SaaS environment

  • Strong analytical skills and comfort defining metrics, standing up dashboards, and using data to identify bottlenecks, root causes, and opportunities to improve a motion
  • Excellent program management skills with the ability to drive multiple cross-functional workstreams simultaneously and keep stakeholders aligned
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, especially for field-facing guidance, executive updates, and operational documentation
  • Able to influence without authority across Product, Sales, Solutions, Customer Success, Finance, and Operations partners
  • High judgment, strong follow-through, and a bias toward building clear, durable systems rather than reactive one-off fixes
  • Comfort operating in ambiguous, early-stage environments where priorities, products, and processes may change quickly
  • A builder mentality: you enjoy taking an emerging motion and turning it into something repeatable, measurable, and easier to scale
  • Demonstrates curiosity about AI tools and emerging technologies, with a willingness to learn and leverage them to enhance productivity, collaboration, or decision-making
