PMO Lead

Overview

As Brooklinen continues to grow, how we prioritize, plan, and deliver cross‑functional initiatives is more important than ever. We’re hiring a PMO Lead to bring greater structure, governance, and consistency to how projects move forward across the organization. Reporting to our SVP of Operations, you’ll own project intake and prioritization, establish consistent ways of planning and tracking initiatives, and serve as the connective tissue between cross‑functional teams.

This is a hands‑on individual contributor role: you’ll build the structure for our project management organization while personally leading project governance and supporting priority initiatives.

• Design and manage a standardized intake, prioritization, and approval process for cross‑functional DTC initiatives
• Establish and maintain a phase‑gated project management methodology with clearly defined stage gates, deliverables, and sign‑offs
• Develop and roll out standardized project plans, status reports, and tools to create greater consistency across teams

• Lead or co‑lead priority cross‑functional projects from planning through execution
• Manage execution tracking, risks, issues, dependencies, and change throughout the project lifecycle
• Identify and resolve cross‑team dependencies and resource conflicts before they affect project timelines
• Serve as a trusted partner to cross‑functional teams, keeping stakeholders aligned on priorities, ownership, and timelines

• Create and maintain a single source of truth for project status, risks, and dependencies
• Establish a consistent project reporting cadence for Brooklinen’s Executive Leadership Team
• Advise executive leaders on project health, tradeoffs, and organizational readiness for change
• Conduct post‑project retrospectives and maintain a lessons‑learned repository to improve delivery over time

• 5+ years of experience in project or program management, including leading cross‑functional initiatives within a retail, e‑commerce, or consumer/DTC environment
• Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence and align senior leaders and peers without formal authority
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including experience presenting project status and recommendations to executive leadership
• Proficiency with project management and collaboration tools
• Management consulting experience is a plus
• A PMP certification or equivalent is a plus
• Experience establishing or formalizing a PMO function within a mid‑size organization is a plus
• Experience with DTC‑specific initiatives such as wholesale expansion, retail or channel expansion, or e‑commerce platform implementations is a plus

Base salary range: $108K–$130K, plus equity. We take a consistent approach to our salary bands to ensure internal equity, and expect to make offers within this range. Final compensation is determined based on experience, skills, and market data.
