Program Manager
Program Coordination
The Program Manager will coordinate multiple related projects and workstreams that share a common business goal, keeping each on track individually and aligned collectively.
Dependency Management
The Program Manager will identify, track, and manage cross-team dependencies before they become blockers, escalating early and clearly when timelines or scope are at risk.
Cross-team Alignment
The Program Manager will serve as the connective point across scrum masters, product owners, developers, testers, development leads, and other stakeholders involved in the program, keeping everyone working from the same plan.
Business Outcomes
The Program Manager will keep the program anchored to why the work matters, regularly checking that the combined output of individual projects is on pace to deliver the intended business value, not just the individual deliverables.
Governance
The Program Manager will establish and run lightweight governance for the program, including status reviews, steering updates, RAID logs, and decision and escalation paths, so leadership always has a clear, current picture.
Status Reporting
The Program Manager will produce consistent, accurate program status updates, dashboards, and leadership presentations, translating team-level detail into program-level insight for stakeholders and senior leadership.
Meeting Support
The Program Manager will facilitate and attend Scrum of Scrums, similar cross-team meetings, and if needed, agile ceremonies, helping surface and resolve issues that cut across multiple teams.
Agile Process Support
The Program Manager will schedule and help facilitate core Agile ceremonies, such as daily standups, retrospectives, and sprint planning, stepping in to keep a team's rituals running smoothly when needed.
Tooling & Documentation
The Program Manager will maintain program-level roadmaps, timelines, and RAID logs in Jira and Confluence, and help teams keep their own tracking current and useful.
Resource Visibility
The Program Manager will track resourcing and budget considerations across the program's constituent projects and flag conflicts or gaps to the appropriate owners.
