The Technical Project Manager role will be responsible for delivering complex, cross-functional projects related to marketing operations systems in very close collaboration with the Marketing Strategy, Planning & Operations team, Global Field Marketing team, Communications team, Events & Executive Engagement team, and the Global Brand & Advertising team. The projects in focus for this position will include implementing a new system for managing marketing-wide planning, integrating this new system with other technologies in the MarTech stack, and rolling out business processes to support the use of the new system.

The successful candidate is able to understand and communicate the overarching, long-term business objectives for their projects and translate those to clear, concise deliverables for the project team. They have the stamina to focus on longtail, multi-phase projects and are capable of bird-dogging multiple streams of work happening in parallel. They are comfortable building cross-functional relationships and navigating ambiguous situations to find clarity, understand priorities, and establish a well-defined project scope.

And they partner well with stakeholders inside the Marketing organization and out, such as Finance, Business Technology and Sales Operations. The Technical PM is compulsive about ensuring roles & responsibilities and decision-making is clear and that communication is flowing between all parties at all times. They employ a calm and objective approach to negotiation and conflict resolution, can work with many different stakeholder personalities, and can build cohesive, positive and productive team environments.

The Marketing PMO is a friendly, high-achieving group that values strong team dynamics and collaborative problem solving to create the most efficient and agile marketing organization possible. An ideal team member is someone who values positive working relationships, can quickly come up to speed on the moving parts of our business, and demonstrates leadership in the face of constant change.

• Facilitate business process discussions, document process diagrams and governance implications to support technology changes, and act as change management champion, while keeping the idea of creating repeatable and scalable processes and deliverables at the forefront.

• Ensure overall project/program quality and look for ways to streamline execution and increase overall efficiency

• Audit projects once completed, conduct post-mortem meetings, determine improvements, and implement process changes
