Governance and Compliance Manager, PMO

AFL DATA CENTER SERVICES

Remote, U.S.-based. Preference given to candidates located in or near Abilene, TX, Northern Virginia, Dallas, TX or Duncan, SC.

To learn more or apply, contact Czarina Tabayoyong, retained recruiter for AFL Data Center Services.

THE OPPORTUNITY

This is a new seat in the Governance pillar of a brand new PMO. The Governance and Compliance Manager will own the standards, playbooks, and compliance scaffolding that turn AFL's strong operational instinct into a repeatable, auditable program management discipline.

You will join early enough to shape what gets written, what gets adopted, and what gets retired. This role blends process design with change management. The right person is as comfortable walking a playbook through adoption with a seasoned operational team as they are drafting it.

WHY THIS ROLE
  • Adoption is the actual job. Documentation matters, but the win is process that sticks with operators who have been figuring things out as they went
  • You will define the governance and compliance bar for a service line on a multi hundred-million-dollar trajectory

WHAT YOU WILL DO
  • Develop and maintain the PMO standards library, including playbooks, templates, process maps, and compliance documentation
  • Drive adoption of PMO standards and playbooks across multiple geographies and project teams, with hands on field engagement rather than top-down rollout
  • Develop and maintain the PMO standards library, including playbooks, templates, process maps, and compliance documentation
  • Partner with operations and delivery leads to translate field practice into documented, repeatable processes.
  • Establish and run the compliance and audit cadence for project management discipline across the portfolio
  • Build the change management approach for new and revised processes, using ADKAR, Prosci, or equivalent frameworks
  • Identify gaps surfaced during rollout and close them with documentation, training, or escalation as needed
  • Coordinate with the Delivery and Analytics and Enablement pillars to ensure standards align with reporting and dashboard needs
  • Support the PMO Vice President and PMO Director on charter execution and operating model evolution

WHAT YOU BRING
  • PMP or PgMP required
  • ADKAR/ Prosci, or equivalent change management certification strongly preferred
  • Eight plus years of progressive experience in PMO, program management, or process excellence roles, with proven methodology and adoption track record
  • Demonstrated experience building or scaling PMO process libraries from scratch or near scratch
  • Comfort working with experienced operational teams who have figured things out as they went, and the credibility to introduce structure without disrupting flow
  • Excellent technical writing and documentation skills, with the ability to translate practitioner knowledge into clean, usable artifacts
  • Strong facilitation and influence skills, comfortable leading process adoption with experienced technical and operational teams
  • Hyperscale, data center, EPC, telecom infrastructure, or large industrial experience is a plus, not a requirement. Project management discipline is the priority

TRAVEL AND AUTHORIZATION
  • Travel is up to 40 percent, heavier in the early months as the team builds connection with operations and customer sites
  • Must be legally authorized to work in the United States on a long-term basis. This position does not offer employment visa sponsorship now or in the future.

COMPENSATION

Compensation philosophy, base plus consideration for project performance bonus tied to initiatives success measures, quality, safety, schedule, and customer satisfaction. Specific ranges discussed during candidate conversations.
