Full Job Description
THE ROLE

Work within the Global Sales Organization (GSO) Program Management Office to lead complex, cross-functional programs that advance strategic Sales and Go-to-Market priorities.

WHAT YOU'LL DO
  • Lead complex, cross-functional Sales and GTM transformation programs end-to-end, translating strategic business priorities into clear scope, outcomes, workstreams, milestones, dependencies, resource requirements, and measurable success criteria.
  • Manage multiple strategic programs and interconnected workstreams simultaneously, independently driving execution from initial strategy and planning through implementation, adoption, and value realization.
  • Bring a strong understanding of Sales and GTM organizations, processes, and operating models, partnering across Sales Leadership, Sales/Revenue Operations, Enablement, Marketing, Channel/Partners, Product, Finance, IT, and other functions to drive business outcomes.
  • Establish and drive business-centric program governance and operating rhythms, including integrated program plans, executive decision forums, milestones, dependencies, RAID management, resource planning, change control, and clear accountability across workstreams.
  • Navigate complex and ambiguous business problems, independently assessing issues, identifying options and tradeoffs, and developing recommendations that enable senior leaders to make informed decisions.
  • Partner with business leaders to translate strategic objectives into measurable outcomes, KPIs, adoption measures, business cases, and ROI, ensuring programs remain focused on delivering business value rather than activity alone.
  • Develop a deep understanding of the seller and field experience, identifying cross-functional process, technology, organizational, and adoption dependencies that may impact execution of GTM initiatives.
  • Serve as the connective tissue across business and technology teams, translating business requirements into executable plans and ensuring technical solutions remain aligned to Sales/GTM objectives and intended business outcomes.
  • Proactively identify and manage cross-program risks, dependencies, resource constraints, and competing priorities; drive teams toward resolution and escalate decisions to executive leadership when necessary.
  • Drive clarity and accountability across complex stakeholder groups, ensuring business owners, workstream leads, and cross-functional partners understand their responsibilities, commitments, decisions, and required outcomes.
  • Build trusted relationships with VP and C-level stakeholders, effectively communicating program health, strategic decisions, risks, investment requirements, and recommendations in a concise and executive-ready manner.
  • Influence across organizational boundaries and drive decisions without direct authority, constructively challenging assumptions and the status quo when necessary to achieve the right business outcome.
  • Anticipate downstream impacts of decisions across Sales, GTM, technology, operations, and other programs, ensuring dependencies and organizational implications are identified early.
  • Lead executive and Steering Committee governance, including developing decision-oriented materials and ensuring leadership forums result in clear decisions, ownership, and follow-through.
  • Manage program investment and resource requirements in partnership with business owners and Finance, including identifying capacity needs, evaluating tradeoffs, and supporting business cases and investment decisions.
  • Lead organizational readiness and change planning in partnership with business and Change/Enablement teams to ensure new processes, capabilities, and tools translate into meaningful field adoption.
  • Drive continuous improvement through retrospectives, lessons learned, and program health assessments, incorporating insights into future programs and PMO standards.
  • Provide guidance and mentorship to supporting Project and Program Managers, helping strengthen program management capabilities and execution across the organization.
  • Partner with PMO leadership and peers to scale the PMO Center of Excellence, advancing enterprise program management standards, frameworks, governance, processes, and best practices.
  • We are primarily an in-office environment and therefore, you will be expected to work from the {{OFFICE_LOCATION}} office in compliance with Everpure's policies, unless you are on PTO, or work travel, or other approved leave.

WHAT YOU BRING
  • 12+ years of progressive program management experience leading complex, cross-functional transformation programs in large organizations.
  • Demonstrated experience supporting Sales, GTM, Revenue/Sales Operations, or related commercial organizations, with a strong understanding of sales processes, motions, and field execution.
  • Proven ability to independently translate ambiguous strategic priorities into structured, executable programs with clear scope, governance, ownership, milestones, dependencies, and measurable outcomes.
  • Strong business and financial acumen, with the ability to connect program execution to business value, investment requirements, ROI, productivity, adoption, and revenue outcomes.
  • Demonstrated ability to influence and communicate with VP and C-level executives, navigate competing priorities, and drive cross-functional decisions without direct authority.
  • Strong executive communication and storytelling skills, with the ability to synthesize complex information into clear recommendations, decisions, and executive-ready materials.
  • Ability to operate effectively across business and technology teams, understanding technical dependencies and translating them into business implications and actionable plans.
  • Comfortable operating in a fast-moving, highly cross-functional environment with significant ambiguity, balancing strategic thinking with strong execution discipline.
  • AI-curious and forward-thinking, with a working knowledge of emerging AI capabilities and a strong interest in how AI can transform Sales, GTM, and program management.
  • Demonstrated ability to leverage AI and automation to improve PMO productivity and effectiveness, including planning, analysis, reporting, risk identification, knowledge management, and other program workflows.
  • Strong command of program/project management methodologies and tools (e.g., Agile, Waterfall, hybrid; Smartsheet, Asana, Jira or equivalent), with the judgment to apply the right approach to the work.
  • Strong analytical, organizational, facilitation, and problem-solving skills, with a bias toward proactively bringing recommendations and solutions.
  • Experience coaching or mentoring other Project/Program Managers and contributing to broader PMO standards and capability development.
  • Project/Program Management certification (PMP, PgMP, PMI-ACP, Scrum Master, or equivalent) required; Lean Six Sigma or process improvement experience a plus.
