Church and Dwight is seeking an IT Associate Director, PMO and Quality Assurance to join our team. This role is responsible for leading the enterprise delivery engine for Church & Dwight technology: the portfolio governance, delivery methods, and quality assurance that determine how quickly and how reliably strategy becomes working capability.

The role is accountable for translating the company's strategic agenda into a sequenced, funded and resourced portfolio, for making delivery performance visible and credible to executive leadership, and for raising the throughput of the delivery organization rather than only the compliance of its processes.

A defining accountability of this role is providing program management office services to CEO-sponsored and Executive Leadership Team initiatives. This includes standing up and running the operating rhythm for Corporate Strategic Deliverables (CSDs), holding a single source of truth on scope, milestones, owners, dependencies and risk, and producing the executive-grade reporting the CEO and ELT rely on to judge progress and reallocate effort.

Where Corporate CSDs and departmental commitments compete for the same capacity, the role sequences accordingly and escalates the trade-off as a decision rather than absorbing it silently.

The role also leads the agile and automation transformation of technology delivery, shifting Church & Dwight from long project-and-milestone cycles toward product-oriented, incrementally delivered work enabled by automated workflows, integrated delivery tooling, shorter cycle times, measured flow, and quality engineered in rather than inspected at the end. In parallel, it modernizes IT Quality Assurance through risk-based and continuous validation, automated testing, AI-assisted quality practices, automated evidence capture, and controls embedded in the delivery pipeline, so that speed, predictability, and compliance improve together instead of trading off.

The individual partners closely with IT leadership, business stakeholders, and strategic internal and external partners to build capability, manage risk, and foster a culture of accountability, continuous improvement, automation adoption, and business partnership.
