New York, NY (Hybrid, 3 days in office)

Highly competitive compensation package

Join an elite technology and research group at the forefront of global finance, where world-class engineering and quantitative research converge to solve some of the most complex problems in any industry. Their teams are composed of passionate problem-solvers who operate in a dynamic, large-scale environment. We are seeking a visionary program manager to join them and lead the charge in accelerating the adoption of Generative AI, ensuring the firm can leverage these transformative technologies with speed, structure, and impact.

We are seeking a highly experienced Program Manager to be the central hub for the firm’s GenAI initiatives. This is a crucial role where you will be the primary driver of strategy and transformation, building the frameworks that will underpin our use of emerging AI technologies. You will act as a key leader and a trusted liaison between our technical teams, business units, Legal & Compliance, and Information Security, ensuring that innovation is managed responsibly and aligned with firmwide priorities.

• Build and maintain clear, integrated project plans for GenAI initiatives, managing timelines, resources, and cross-functional coordination across the firm.
• Develop and maintain a central inventory of all GenAI activity, ensuring visibility and alignment with firmwide priorities while identifying new opportunities.
• Facilitate essential processes such as GenAI-related approvals, project tracking, reporting, and documentation to keep initiatives progressing effectively.
• Work closely with key stakeholders including technical and non-technical teams to improve processes and reduce barriers to GenAI adoption.
• Help ensure that best practices and governance standards are consistently applied across all projects, fostering a culture of responsible innovation.

• At least six years of professional experience in program or project management, ideally within consulting, government, or technology-driven environments.

• Deep expertise in facilitating approvals, reporting, and documentation processes, with a focus on transparency and responsible execution in a regulated environment.
• Experience with GenAI is highly valued; candidates without direct GenAI experience should possess an impressive skillset in a relevant area such as analytics, digital transformation, or technical strategy.
• Exceptional communication, organizational, and collaboration skills, with a proven ability to act as a bridge between technical and non-technical groups.
• A proactive approach to problem-solving and a track record of improving and building processes from the ground up.
