Program Director GO Enterprise

Wed, 06/10/2026 - 00:40

What You'll Do:

We are looking for a Program Director to help drive GO Enterprise through its next phase of growth, commercialization, and scale. This role is designed for someone who can sit at the center of Product, R&D, GTM, Commercial, Finance, Legal, People, and Operations, turning strategic priorities into clear plans, strong governance, fast decisions, and reliable execution.

You will partner closely with senior leaders and cross-functional teams to create clarity, manage priorities, drive operating rigor, and remove blockers across a broad and evolving portfolio. This is an ideal role for someone who is highly structured, low ego, execution-oriented, and comfortable taking loosely scoped problems and driving them through to business outcomes.

What you will do

• Drive end-to-end program execution across GO Enterprise priorities, from framing the work through launch, stabilization, adoption, and follow-through.

• Translate leadership ambitions and business goals into clear milestones, dependencies, success metrics, owners, and decision points.

• Build and maintain the operating mechanisms that keep complex work moving, including plans, milestones, trackers, governance forums, status updates, risk registers, and executive-ready summaries.

• Coordinate across multiple stakeholders to ensure alignment on scope, owners, sequencing, dependencies, trade-offs, and readiness.

• Protect broader portfolio and Annual Operating Plan commitments by surfacing trade-offs early and ensuring execution choices do not create unmanaged risk for other strategic priorities.

• Identify risks, surface issues early, propose mitigation paths, and help leaders make timely decisions in fast-moving and ambiguous situations.

• Partner with GTM, Commercial, and Operations on launch readiness, field enablement, support models, and adoption plans so initiatives land effectively in market.

• Act as a communication bridge across technical and non-technical stakeholders, translating messy context into clear actions, crisp documents, and decision-ready recommendations.

• Create lightweight, scalable processes that improve execution, accountability, and predictability without adding unnecessary complexity.

• Support leadership communications, governance cadences, and cross-functional follow-up so that important initiatives stay visible, coordinated, and on track.

• Do the practical work that makes strategic programs succeed, whether that means writing the first draft, organizing the meeting, cleaning up the tracker, following up on dependencies, or driving a loose end to closure.

Who You Are:

• Significant experience in program management, consulting, chief of staff, strategy & operations, technical program management, or a related cross-functional leadership role in a fast-paced environment.

• Proven ability to manage complex, high-visibility programs with multiple stakeholders, dependencies, and shifting priorities.

• Strong judgment, low ego, and a demonstrated ability to take an ambiguous problem, determine what matters, and drive execution without waiting for perfect direction.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to adapt messages for executive, technical, and business audiences.

• Experience building structured operating cadences and scalable processes that improve clarity, accountability, speed, and decision quality.

• Strong cross-functional influence skills and the ability to build trust across different teams and perspectives.

• Comfort working close to product and technical teams, with enough fluency to understand constraints, dependencies, quality bars, and delivery trade-offs.

• Strong analytical rigor and comfort working with KPIs, trackers, reporting, and action plans to drive accountability.

• High ownership, strong follow-through, and a willingness to handle both strategic work and unglamorous execution work when needed.

Preferred qualifications

• Experience in ad tech, DSPs, product-led, platform, enterprise, or technology organizations with heavy cross-functional interdependence.

• Experience supporting executive-level governance, portfolio reviews, launch programs, or major transformation efforts.

• Experience partnering across Product, Engineering, GTM, and Commercial on ship-and-scale programs.

• Familiarity with commercialization, launch readiness, adoption planning, and operating model design.

• Experience navigating ambiguity in high-growth or rapidly changing environments.
