Job description

• We are looking for a seasoned program leader who has successfully managed large-scale enterprise implementation or transformation programs involving multiple technology platforms, business functions, vendors, and geographically distributed teams. The ideal candidate should be comfortable operating at both strategic and execution levels. While they must be capable of engaging senior executives and leading governance forums, they must also be willing to get into the details of integrated plans, workstream dependencies, risks, issues, testing readiness, and deployment execution. This is not a conventional project tracking or PMO reporting role. We need an accountable delivery leader who can bring together multiple teams, drive execution, manage complexity, and ensure that the overall Blue Yonder transformation program is delivered successfully.

Roles and Responsibilities

• 15–20+ years of experience in IT services, enterprise program management, and large-scale technology transformation.
• At least 5–7 years of experience leading complex, multi-vendor, multi-workstream enterprise implementation programs.
• Demonstrated experience in Supply Chain Management (SCM), Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), logistics, distribution, or related enterprise transformation initiatives.
• Experience with Blue Yonder (JDA) implementations, preferably TMS (Transportation Management System), is highly desirable.
• Strong understanding of enterprise application ecosystems, system integrations, ERP platforms, and middleware technologies.
• Exposure to MuleSoft or other enterprise integration platforms such as Boomi, Informatica, or similar technologies.
• Proven experience managing global programs involving geographically distributed teams and multiple business stakeholders.
• Strong experience managing SIT, UAT, deployment, cutover, and hypercare activities.
• Experience working with large enterprise clients and managing senior-level stakeholder relationships.
• Excellent program governance, planning, risk management, and executive communication skills.
