• Lead program syncs, workstream reviews, governance meetings, steering committee sessions, and executive business reviews.
• Provide clear visibility into program progress, outcomes, risks, dependencies, decisions, and required leadership actions.
• Create executive-level reporting that connects implementation progress to business value and adoption.
• Facilitate decisions and tradeoff discussions involving scope, timing, risk, resources, technical complexity, and organizational readiness.

About AllShore Talent

AllShore Talent partners with growing organizations to build high-performing technology and consulting teams. We connect skilled professionals with meaningful, long-term engagements across web technologies, digital experience platforms, and enterprise software delivery — offering competitive compensation, flexible engagement models, and a collaborative, remote-friendly culture.

About the Role

The Principal Program Manager is responsible for executing complex enterprise generative AI implementation programs with discipline, urgency, and measurable results.

This individual will orchestrate multiple integrated workstreams, ensuring that technical implementation, business objectives, governance, organizational readiness, and user adoption remain aligned throughout the program. The Principal Program Manager will establish the operating structure required to move programs forward, proactively address risks and dependencies, and ensure that new capabilities become embedded within the client’s organization.

This is not a traditional project coordination or status-reporting position. The Principal Program Manager must be capable of leading large-scale enterprise software implementations, driving accountability across teams, navigating complex technical and organizational environments, and communicating effectively with senior executives.

The successful candidate will combine strong program-management discipline with an understanding of generative AI, enterprise technology, data, security, governance, and organizational change.

• Relevant program-management or Agile certifications.

What Success Looks Like

Success in this role means complex implementation programs move forward with urgency, discipline, and clear accountability. Workstreams remain aligned, dependencies and risks are addressed before they affect delivery, executives have reliable visibility into progress, and implementation decisions support measurable business outcomes.

Most importantly, generative AI capabilities must become a sustainable part of how the client operates. Success is measured not only by deployment, but also by adoption, operational readiness, governance, and lasting business value.
