About the role

The Senior Manager, Commercial Execution & Program Management is focused on the day-to-day management of our promotional offerings. This critical role within the Growth Marketing & Content team drives results by managing in-quarter commercial execution, working closely with external partners to secure and maximize promotional investments, and pioneering new ways of working.

• OEM Investment Management: Ensure we secure a fair share of promotional investments, while working closely with key stakeholders including Finance and Sourcing to manage the entire funding lifecycle—from contract execution and invoicing through to final payment processing.
• Process Optimization: Initiate and lead large-scale programs designed to structurally optimize legacy processes and establish faster, more agile ways of working across the commercial pipeline.
• AI Implementation & Automation: Transform manual tasks by deploying AI solutions and workflow automations to streamline the creation of promotion materials, OEM funding trackers, and all marketing briefs.
• Program Management: Scope projects, develop roadmaps, and manage functional stakeholders to ensure flawless execution and the successful adoption of new automated tools across the organization.
