A problem isn’t truly solved until it’s solved for all. That’s why Googlers build products that help create opportunities for everyone, whether down the street or across the globe. As a Program Manager at Google, you’ll lead complex, multi-disciplinary projects from start to finish — working with stakeholders to plan requirements, manage project schedules, identify risks, and communicate clearly with cross-functional partners across the company.
Your projects will often span offices, time zones, and hemispheres. It's your job to coordinate the players and keep them up to date on progress and deadlines.
The Strategic Partnership Office (SPO) bridges Google’s technology capabilities with real-world partners to expand economic, community, and workforce development outcomes.
As a Community Development Manager, you will combine community engagement and industry knowledge to support Google’s infrastructure growth. You will drive business value by accelerating new technical infrastructure delivery, protecting Google’s license to operate globally, and leveraging community partnerships to deliver impactful solutions.
In this role, you will provide data-driven insights and execute programmatic engagement based on community assessments across existing and prospective data center markets. You will partner with cross-functional teams to drive measurable social impact, cultivate relationships with Key Opinion Formers (KOFs), government officials, and community leaders, and research new in-market opportunities. Additionally, you will serve as a subject matter expert on data center delivery and strategic community engagement, entrenching best practices across a rapidly growing organization.
