Project Manager/Sr. Consultant

Description

We are looking for an accomplished Program Manager to guide a complex global business and technology initiative supporting sales inventory and customer management operations in Santa Clara, California. This Contract position will oversee governance, execution planning, and stakeholder alignment across regional and cross-functional teams while keeping delivery on track against an established strategic roadmap. The role is best suited for a senior leader who excels at navigating matrixed environments, coordinating enterprise platforms and partners, and communicating effectively with executive audiences.

Responsibilities

Direct program governance and day-to-day delivery coordination across a global portfolio of business and technology workstreams. Partner with business and platform leadership to align execution plans with approved priorities, milestones, and long-term objectives. Prepare and lead executive updates, steering committee sessions, status reviews, and leadership communications to maintain visibility and decision support. Foster collaboration among sales, customer experience, energy, delivery, procurement, market development, platform teams, and external implementation partners.

Maintain core governance materials such as risk trackers, issue logs, dependency registers, action items, milestone schedules, and executive reporting dashboards. Coordinate delivery efforts spanning Salesforce-related initiatives, system integrations, reporting environments, data governance activities, enterprise readiness planning, and release management. Monitor vendor and partner performance to ensure work is delivered in line with agreed statements of work, timelines, and quality expectations.

Support release cycles through sprint alignment, backlog discussions, deployment readiness reviews, and stakeholder coordination. Act as the central escalation point for program risks, interdependencies, delivery blockers, and other issues affecting successful execution. Synchronize activities across global stakeholder groups in multiple regions to promote consistency, transparency, and program momentum.

Requirements

10+ years of experience in program and project management within enterprise environments. Demonstrated success leading large, business-critical technology programs involving multiple teams and stakeholders. Experience managing global initiatives across geographically dispersed regions and cross-functional organizations. Strong ability to influence outcomes in matrixed settings without direct supervisory authority. Background overseeing implementation partners, vendors, and third-party delivery organizations.

Working knowledge of Salesforce platforms, enterprise SaaS ecosystems, integrations, and structured delivery methodologies. Proven skill in facilitating executive-level meetings, steering committees, and senior stakeholder communications. PMP certification and experience with Agile delivery tools such as Jira are strongly valued.
