The Partnerships department operates in a fast-paced environment with a lean team. Key priorities arise from major events like SKO or Forge Partner Day, cross-functional initiatives, and urgent executive inquiries. Top-tier partnership teams require a dedicated program manager to own these priorities, drive execution, and maintain clear visibility into project status, blockers, and ownership.
Operating across the entire department rather than within a single partner segment, this role collaborates across every functional pillar. Key responsibilities centre on establishing clear workstream visibility and managing high-priority ad-hoc projects. This includes maintaining an accurate single source of truth for ongoing department initiatives, supporting program management for flagship events such as SKO, Forge Partner Day, and the departmental kick-off, and partnering closely with the AVP, Partner Experience to maintain the departmental operating rhythm—encompassing OKRs, business reviews, strategic narratives, All Hands meetings, and internal communications.
Rapid growth has outpaced formal tracking, leaving initiatives reliant on informal ownership and tracking. We need a program manager to establish structure, seamlessly manage diverse workstreams, and build lasting, repeatable processes. Success is defined by delivering high-quality projects on time and maintaining clear, transparent visibility into overall department status.
A department our size can't hire a specialist for every function, and shouldn't. What it needs is someone who can pick up whatever matters most this month, run it properly and leave something behind that works without them. One month that is the narrative and run of show for Forge Partner Day. The next it is an initiative that three teams each assume another team owns. The through-line is visibility: whatever you are working on, people can see where it stands.
You will not own the content or the decisions. Pillar leads own their numbers and their stories, and leadership owns the choices. You own the delivery and the clarity around it. That means asking the question that exposes a gap in a plan, noticing when a deadline will slip a week before it does, and telling a leader that their narrative buries the lead. You do this without formal authority, and you earn trust by making everyone else's job easier.
You will also see things that are sensitive: survey results, plans in progress, changes to the organisation. Discretion is part of the job.
For candidates based in the United States, the pay range for this position at the start of employment is expected to be between $92,000 and $131,200/year, with an expected On Target Earnings (OTE) between $115,000 and $164,000/year (including bonus or commission). Your exact offer may vary depending on multiple individualized factors, including market location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. In addition to cash compensation, this role qualifies for a comprehensive Total Rewards package that includes equity grants of restricted stock (RSUs) so that you will own a piece of our company.
