About the role

Capital One is seeking a forward‑thinking, dynamic, and insightful Manager to join the Finance Integrated Program & Delivery (FIPD) team. In this role you will lead high‑impact strategic initiatives that are transforming how Finance works, serving as a central point of orchestration for a portfolio of high‑priority, complex initiatives across the Finance organization. You will bring structure, discipline, and a holistic Finance perspective to work that spans multiple teams, stakeholders, and priorities, ensuring leaders have clear visibility into progress, decisions, and potential impacts. The role also focuses on accelerating AI adoption by understanding existing processes, identifying AI opportunities, and translating them into actionable use cases.

Responsibilities

• Develop concise, decision‑oriented updates for senior leaders, highlighting progress, emerging issues, key decisions, and areas requiring leadership intervention.
• Own and drive clear, consistent, and timely communications across the portfolio, translating complex program information into audience‑appropriate messaging for executives, stakeholders, and delivery teams.
• Identify connections, overlaps, competing priorities, and opportunities across initiatives to ensure work is managed through an enterprise lens.
• Proactively identify risks, dependencies, capacity constraints, and potential delivery challenges; drive mitigation plans and escalate issues before they impact critical outcomes.
• Establish mechanisms for capturing decisions, identifying decision owners, defining required inputs, and ensuring decisions are made at the appropriate level and translated into action.
• Translate strategic priorities into executable plans, helping teams move from broad objectives to defined outcomes, workstreams, milestones, and measurable success criteria.
• Anticipate upcoming needs, decisions, risks, and organizational impacts to keep leadership multiple steps ahead.
• Develop a strong understanding of current processes and workflows to proactively identify AI opportunities that simplify work, automate manual activities, improve insights, or enhance operations; partner with team members to evaluate, prioritize, and advance high‑value opportunities from idea through implementation.
• Provide critical visibility into the AI portfolio through standardized reporting that tracks adoption, resource demand, and project health, replacing manual reporting with self‑service tools.
• Evaluate current work‑management practices and introduce new tools, AI capabilities, automation, and operating practices that make program delivery faster, simpler, and more effective.
