About the role
We are seeking a Program Manager III to lead expansion strategy for our Rural Super Rural Plus (RSR+) program within R2L. In this role, you will own strategic expansion planning end-to-end — evaluating and prioritizing opportunities, building the roadmaps that guide the program's long-term growth, and driving expansion initiatives from intake through execution within a defined program lifecycle. This position requires a self-directed operator who can navigate ambiguity with autonomy, deep dive across a wide range of functional domains, and communicate with impact at every level — up to VP-level leadership.
Responsibilities
- Own strategic expansion planning for the RSR+ program, including evaluation, prioritization, and development/maintenance of expansion roadmaps that guide the program's long-term growth trajectory.
- Run the program's intake-to-launch lifecycle, moving initiatives from prioritized intake through scoping and tollgate reviews to launch.
- Scope and drive expansion initiatives across strategic programs, translating ambiguous opportunities into structured, executable plans.
- Partner with Network Design to validate and align expansion priorities with network capacity and infrastructure realities.
- Coordinate across cross-functional stakeholders — design, selection, supply chain, capacity, operations, optimization, and quality — operating within a defined RACI to remove blockers and drive decisions that keep programs moving forward.
- Synthesize complex, multi-source inputs into clear, executive-ready narratives and recommendations; communicate expansion strategy, risks, and program status to VP-level leadership through written and verbal business reviews.
- Identify risks and interdependencies early and drive resolution across stakeholder groups.
- Conduct capacity feasibility analysis, drive programs through decision gates, and build OP-level business cases that distill months of network-planning complexity into crisp, decision-ready briefs.
- Connect with stakeholders (Network Design, Selection, Supply Chain, Capacity) to drive clarity and move expansion decisions forward.
