A problem isn’t truly solved until it’s solved for all. That’s why Googlers build products that help create opportunities for everyone, whether down the street or across the globe. As a Program Manager at Google, you’ll lead complex, multi-disciplinary projects from start to finish – working with stakeholders to plan requirements, manage project schedules, identify risks, and communicate clearly with cross-functional partners across the company. Your projects will often span offices, time zones, and hemispheres. It’s your job to coordinate the players and keep them up to date on progress and deadlines.
Our goal is to build a Google that looks like the world around us – and we want Googlers to stay and grow when they join us. As part of our efforts to build a Google for everyone, we build diversity, equity, and inclusion into our work and we aim to cultivate a sense of belonging throughout the company.
As a Global Affairs Senior Program Manager, you will report to the Head of Governance, Risk, and Compliance and will be responsible for leading and managing a team. You will work with cross-functional partners to identify top business priorities, outcomes and pain points, translate them into business requirements, prioritize competing needs, align executive audiences to gain buy-in, and influence the solution and product roadmap. You will also balance Google’s legal and compliance requirements with users’ needs, and the company’s values. You will be responsible for interfacing with risk and compliance teams, product, engineering, executives, as well as other cross-functional teams.
We help inform and educate users, advertisers, partners, opinion leaders—and our own employees—about the benefits of Google’s products, our distinctive company culture/values and our approach to the big public policy issues of the day. You are quick-witted, entrepreneurial and intellectually curious. To succeed in this role, you are willing to try new things and can manage numerous projects with tight deadlines. Things happen quickly at Google, and to do great work, you need to be an enthusiastic team player who can work cross-functionally with partners across PR, Communications, Marketing, Product, and beyond.
