Project Manager, Global Expansion

Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end project management for entity employment readiness, including intake and scoping, requirements gathering, readiness gates, cross-functional approvals, and go-live and post-go-live handoff to People, Legal, and Finance functions
• Lead communications and change management across every entity lifecycle event, from kick-off briefings for executive sponsors and functional leads through employee-facing notifications before system cutover, ensuring every impacted audience has the right information at the right time
• Lead entity-related workstreams in mergers and acquisitions (M&A) integrations, advising on retain/merge/wind-down decisions, managing employer-of-record to entity transitions, and ensuring entity timelines are reflected in broader deal plans
• Partner with cross-functional stakeholders to anticipate and manage the full implications of entity lifecycle events before they create downstream risk; proactively surface dependencies, resolve blockers, and escalate where needed
• Build and continuously improve the infrastructure that makes entity management and employment readiness scalable: intake forms, project plan templates, handoff checklists, standard operating procedures (SOPs) and playbooks for common jurisdictions, compliance trackers, and retrospective documentation that feeds back into process improvements after each go-live
• Serve as the connective tissue across functional owners, surfacing cross-entity patterns, systemic risks, and program coverage gaps; support People leadership with structured analysis and reporting on portfolio health and entity-specific program decisions

Requirements

• 7+ years of program / operations management experience, including at least 3 years driving multi-stakeholder, cross-functional initiatives

Qualifications

• The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.
