Role:  AI Program & Execution Manager

Location: Remote until further notice 

About the role: 

As AI Program and Execution Manager, you'll be the operational backbone of our AI portfolio. Based in India, you'll coordinate execution across in-market, Enablement, and Operations workstreams — tracking progress, managing interdependencies, and ensuring that what gets planned gets done. You'll work closely with AI leads, technology teams, and senior stakeholders, preparing executive-ready updates and keeping delivery on track across a fast-moving, complex programme landscape.

This is a high-visibility role for someone who thinks systematically, communicates with clarity, and takes genuine satisfaction in turning ambiguity into momentum.

What you will be doing: 

• Maintain the master AI initiative tracker, providing clear and up-to-date visibility of progress, priorities, and status across all active programmes


• Track execution across in-market, Enablement, and Operations workstreams — identifying risks, blockers, and bottlenecks before they impact delivery


• Coordinate cross-functional delivery timelines, managing interdependencies between teams and maintaining alignment across the portfolio


• Prepare executive-ready updates, dashboards, and programme summaries for senior leadership


• Monitor action items and follow-ups across the portfolio, driving accountability and ensuring timely resolution


• Escalate blockers to leadership with clear context and recommended paths forward


• Support portfolio implementation planning, including resource allocation and capacity visibility


• Facilitate alignment sessions and working groups to maintain delivery momentum across functions


• Identify opportunities to strengthen programme governance frameworks and improve delivery processes


• Partner with AI leads, technology teams, and business stakeholders to ensure clear ownership and coordination at every stage

What you need to be great in this role: 

• Experience in programme or project management within technology, AI, digital transformation, or data-led environments


• Proven ability to coordinate complex, multi-workstream programmes across cross-functional teams


• Confidence preparing and communicating executive-level updates, progress reports, and dashboards for senior stakeholders


• Experience managing programme governance, risk and issue logs, and delivery trackers


• Proactive approach to surfacing and resolving delivery blockers — you don't wait to be asked


• Strong stakeholder management skills — equally effective partnering with senior leaders and operational teams


• Comfortable navigating fast-moving, ambiguous environments where priorities evolve


• Familiarity with AI, digital, or data transformation programmes


• Proficiency with project management and collaboration tools such as Asana, Monday.com, Jira, Airtable, or similar


• Gen AI proficiency: able to use generative AI tools to improve efficiency, enhance documentation quality, and support programme reporting workflows


• Agentic thinking: ability to break complex delivery challenges into clear, manageable steps and drive outcomes systematically
