• Keep over 100+ tasks per deal on track
• Facilitate meetings, provide status updates, track risks/issues, and drive accountability
• Support employee communications, payroll transitions, benefits changes, severance activities, and position eliminations
• Partner with leadership teams and various deal subcommittees throughout each transaction
• Ensure all HR-related deliverables are completed on schedule
Required Experience
Must have:
• Strong Program Management experience
• Experience coordinating complex, cross-functional initiatives
• Exceptional stakeholder management and communication skills
• Ability to manage multiple parallel workstreams and deadlines
• Strong meeting facilitation, documentation, follow-up, and organizational skills
• Ability to work independently in a remote environment
