As a Program Director within Code and Theory's Enterprise Experience Transformation (EXT) practice, you will be responsible for the delivery of a portfolio of co-developed, productized solutions-built by Code and Theory in collaboration with a major enterprise platform partner and designed to be taken to market and co-sold. You will oversee delivery across the full program (not tied to a single client account), coaching and mentoring a matrixed team of program/project managers and producers while partnering closely with strategy, creative, technology, and commercial leaders.

A great Program Director is both strategic and hands-on: you establish best practices, optimize workflows, build scalable processes, and maintain a clear pulse on program health across multiple workstreams. You're a strong leader who empowers delivery teams at every level, fosters cross-discipline collaboration, and creates the operational clarity required to build, package, and operationalize solutions that can be repeatedly delivered. Ultimately, you balance ambition with fiscal responsibility-ensuring Code and Theory ships high-quality work efficiently and profitably, while supporting growth through scalable offerings.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Own end-to-end program delivery across co-developed solution initiatives, building agility, rigor, and precision into execution
• Operationalize productized solutions: partner with cross-functional leads to translate concepts into repeatable offerings (clear inputs/outputs, delivery approach, packaging), while keeping room for evolution
• Manage multiple concurrent timelines and complex dependencies across disciplines, workstreams, and stakeholders - driving crisp plans, decision points, and escalation paths.
• Own day-to-day stakeholder alignment and expectation management: even when paired with a client engagement lead, you will directly manage delivery expectations, tradeoffs, and timeline realities with client and partner stakeholders
• Establish operating rhythms and governance across workstreams: intake, prioritization, approval paths, milestone plans, dependency management, and release readiness
• Drive transparency and accountability through executive-ready reporting (progress, burn vs. budget, forecast, risks, gaps, blockers) and action-oriented remediation plans
• Own scoping and financial performance: estimation, resourcing plans, burn management, forecasting, and change management to protect outcomes and margins
• Partner with go-to-market stakeholders to ensure delivery is aligned to commercialization needs (readiness, enablement inputs, implementation considerations) and the expectations of a large enterprise sales organization
• Collaborate with enterprise marketing technology stakeholders to ensure offerings are practical for real-world adoption within complex martech ecosystems
• Lead and develop a matrixed team of PMs/producers, providing coaching, prioritization support, escalation management, and coverage planning
• Collaborate with technical/platform stakeholders; familiarity with the Adobe ecosystem (e.g., AEM, Workfront, Adobe Experience Cloud) is a strong plus

WHAT YOU'LL NEED

• 10+ years of program/project delivery leadership experience in a creative/digital agency, consultancy, or professional services environment
• A proven track record delivering complex, cross-functional programs across scope, schedule, budget, risk, and quality
• Demonstrated strength managing multiple workstreams with significant dependencies - with the ability to maintain momentum, resolve constraints, and keep stakeholders aligned
• Strong client management and communication skills: ability to set expectations, negotiate tradeoffs, and calmly lead through ambiguity while protecting delivery outcomes
• Experience operating in ambiguous, build-and-launch environments where offerings are evolving and delivery must be structured without being rigid
• Demonstrated comfort working adjacent to (or in partnership with) large enterprise sales organizations, supporting co-sell motions with delivery inputs such as packaging, readiness, implementation considerations, and value realization
• Experience with enterprise marketing technology and digital experience platforms (e.g., CMS/DXP, marketing workflow tools, content supply chain, analytics/measurement); familiarity with the Adobe ecosystem is a strong plus
• Industry exposure in high-tech and/or martech environments; experience delivery for regulated or high-scale enterprises is a plus
• Strong business and financial acumen, including scoping/estimation, forecasting, and managing burn vs. budget
• Exceptional interpersonal skills, including executive communication, emotional intelligence, and the ability to influence and align diverse stakeholders
• Comfort partnering with technical and product/platform leaders; ability to translate complexity into clear, actionable delivery plans
• A leadership style rooted in ownership, humility, and mentorship, promoting a culture of accountability and continuous improvement
