About the jobA problem isn't truly solved until it's solved for all. That's why Googlers build products that help create opportunities for everyone, whether down the street or across the globe. As a Program Manager at Google, you'll lead complex, multi-disciplinary projects from start to finish - working with stakeholders to plan requirements, manage project schedules, identify risks, and communicate clearly with cross-functional partners across the company. Your projects will often span offices, time zones, and hemispheres. It's your job to coordinate the players and keep them up to date on progress and deadlines.
This role is critical to maintaining the integrity and accuracy of our demand and financial forecasts. You will act as the primary custodian of the forecasting process, managing complex metadata configurations and incorporating workdriver data while ensuring rigorous validation with Engineering teams.
A key portion of this role involves cross-functional collaboration, you will validate stakeholder inputs regarding new launches and Product Support Manager (PSM) adjustments, and coordinate directly with Service Delivery Managers (SDMs) to lead comprehensive forecast refresh exercises.

You will also maintain financial excellence through quarterly Purchase Order (PO) forecast audits, with the potential to increase frequency to a monthly cadence. This position requires a blend of analytical precision, stakeholder management, and the ability to synthesize changes into clear recap analyses for leadership.
