Program Manager, Value Creation

Support Enterprise Value Creation Initiatives
Help translate high-level strategic priorities into specific, measurable initiatives with clear owners, milestones, KPIs, dependencies, and expected business impact.
Build and maintain initiative trackers, value bridges, KPI dashboards, business cases, and executive reporting materials.
Partner with functional teams across Engineering, Product, GTM, Support, Professional Services, Customer Success, Finance, HR, and Legal to track progress, identify blockers, and support issue resolution.
Support regular operating rhythms, including leadership reviews, SteerCo materials, initiative readouts, and follow-ups from executive discussions.
Conduct analysis to size opportunities, assess benefits, track actual vs. planned impact, and identify areas requiring management attention.
Help Drive QAD’s AI Transformation Agenda
Support the identification, prioritization, and tracking of AI initiatives across functions, including Engineering productivity, Support diagnostics and resolution, Professional Services automation, GTM productivity, Finance / BI enablement, HR, and Legal.
Help structure AI use cases into clear problem statements, workflows, data / system requirements, expected outputs, adoption metrics, and business outcomes.
Define and track AI success metrics, including adoption, usage depth, cycle time reduction, productivity improvement, throughput, quality, backlog reduction, and financial impact.
Partner with business teams, technical teams, and external vendors to move AI initiatives from concept to pilot to scaled deployment.
Support executive-level reporting on AI transition progress, including Board / leadership updates, initiative status, benefits realization, risks, and key decisions needed.
Help establish practical measurement models that link AI usage to operational outcomes, not just activity.
Support Operating Model and SI Transition Work
Support enterprise operating model workstreams, including current-state diagnostics, future-state design, workflow decomposition, role / responsibility mapping, and implementation planning.
Help coordinate across internal teams, third-party advisors, and implementation / systems integration partners to ensure continuity between strategy, design, and execution.
Support the transition from high-level transformation design to detailed L3 / L4 workflow definition, requirements, blueprints, PRDs, and implementation roadmaps.
Track dependencies, risks, decisions, and follow-ups across internal teams and external partners.
Help ensure implementation partners are set up with the right context, documentation, governance, and success metrics to execute effectively in later phases.
Build Executive-Ready Analysis and Materials
Prepare concise, high-quality materials for senior leadership discussions, operating reviews, Board updates, and cross-functional working sessions.
Synthesize inputs from interviews, data, transcripts, functional plans, and project updates into clear insights and recommended actions.
Build Excel / Sheets-based analyses, KPI trees, initiative scorecards, benefit trackers, and simple financial models.
Convert ambiguous or unstructured inputs into clear problem statements, decision points, and next steps.
Ensure reporting focuses on outcomes, value delivery, risks, and decisions needed — not just activity updates.
You are a structured problem-solver with strong analytical skills and a bias for action. You are comfortable working in ambiguity, asking good questions, and bringing order to complex cross-functional initiatives. You can move fluidly between analysis and execution: one day building a KPI model, the next synthesizing leadership input, and the next following up with functional owners to unblock progress.
You are intellectually curious about AI and business transformation, but you do not need to be a technical AI expert. You should be comfortable learning quickly, understanding how AI can reshape workflows, and helping business and technical teams align on what needs to be built, measured, and operationalized.
