WPP Enterprise Solutions is seeking a Senior Program Delivery leader to run the day-to-day program operating engine for Ford’s AI-enabled Content Supply Chain transformation workstream. This role will own how the program gets activated, governed, sequenced, resourced, tracked, and delivered across a complex ecosystem of Ford stakeholders, WPP capabilities, platform partners, production teams, data teams, technology teams, and agency work streams.

This is a high-complexity transformation delivery role. The work spans content production, asset lifecycle management, taxonomy, metadata, DAM modernization, AI-enabled production, customer data connectivity, decisioning, workflow, governance, measurement, and optimization. The Program Delivery Lead must be able to convert strategic ambition into an executable program model with clear work streams, owners, milestones, dependencies, risks, operating rhythms, and decision paths.

The Business Lead will own the overall business agenda and client growth strategy. This role will own the delivery architecture: how the program runs, how work gets organized, how teams stay aligned, how decisions get made, how progress is tracked, and how WPP ensures high-quality execution across every workstream.

The ideal candidate is a senior delivery operator and transformation leader who can build structure in ambiguity, manage multiple integrated work streams, anticipate risk, drive accountability, and create the conditions for a large cross-functional team to succeed.

• Own the integrated delivery model for the Ford Content Supply Chain transformation workstream.
• Translate the overall transformation agenda into a structured program plan with clear work streams, deliverables, milestones, dependencies, owners, risks, and decision points.
• Design and maintain the program operating system: meeting cadence, governance forums, status reporting, escalation paths, decision logs, dependency tracking, milestone management, and executive updates.
• Ensure the program moves from disconnected initiatives into a coordinated, sequenced transformation roadmap.
• Partner with the Business Lead to turn business priorities into actionable delivery plans.
• Create clarity around what is active, what is planned, what is blocked, what requires decision, and what is ready to scale.
• Drive day-to-day progress across multiple work streams, ensuring teams are aligned, accountable, and focused on the right outcomes.

• Lead the orchestration of all CSC work streams.
• Establish workstream charters, success measures, delivery plans, timelines, dependencies, and operating models.
• Ensure each workstream has clear ownership,…
