Summary: We are seeking a delivery-focused Program Director to lead complex, multi-workstream transformation programs from planning through execution and stabilization, as part of the Transformation Office, which drives high-impact, cross-functional initiatives to improve scalability, efficiency, and organizational effectiveness. This role is hands-on and execution-driven, responsible for ensuring initiatives move forward on schedule, risks are proactively managed, stakeholders are aligned, and outcomes are delivered.

Monitor progress against KPIs, timelines, and budgets. Maintain visibility into risks, mitigation plans, and issue resolution. Operational Implementation Support implementation of new systems, tools, workflows, or operating models. Partner with business leaders to transition initiatives from project phase to steady-state operations. Ensure adoption plans are in place and measurable outcomes are achieved. Identify inefficiencies and drive continuous improvement post-launch. Results & Accountability Track tangible business outcomes (efficiency gains, cycle time reductions, cost savings, revenue enablement, risk reduction). Ensure initiatives are not only launched, but fully embedded and delivering value. What You'll Bring Experience 7+ years of experience in program management, operations, or large-scale cross-functional delivery within SaaS, fintech, or technology environments.
