Job Description
About the Role The Sr. Manager, PMO is a working management role embedded within Precor's Commercial Business Unit. This person is in the work—executing, driving outcomes, and helping the organization turn priorities into action. They sit on the program intake committee, establish governance standards, mentor a team of program managers, and personally drive high-priority strategic programs from start to finish. This role has broad visibility across the Commercial Business Unit and works closely with leaders across Sales, Operations, Supply Chain, Finance, CX, Product, and the executive team. You will help shape how the organization prioritizes and executes its most important initiatives, bringing structure to complex work, connecting the dots across functions, and ensuring decisions translate into measurable outcomes. As a secondary function, this role provides direct operational support to the organization: tracking priorities, closing open items, and keeping the business operating rhythm running with discipline across functions. This includes creating visibility into what is happening, what is at risk, where decisions are needed, and what needs to move forward. This is not a traditional PMO oversight role. This is a role for someone who builds the system and works inside it every day and can establish the structure and standards needed to scale execution while also getting into the details when the work requires it. The right person brings strong judgment, urgency, and follow-through, and knows when to create structure, when to solve directly, and when to escalate. Responsibilities PMO Governance & Standards Serve as a standing member of the program intake committee; evaluate incoming requests against business priorities, capacity, and sequencing before committing resources Own the integrated master program calendar across all active CBU initiatives; ensure every program has a defined owner, milestone set, and decision structure Build and maintain a single source of truth for all program plans, decision logs, RAID logs, and status reporting Design and embed standard program templates, playbooks, and governance frameworks across the CBU; reduce reliance on tribal knowledge and one-off approaches Drive weekly and monthly program status reviews; surface blockers, decisions, and risks with enough lead time to act before they escalate Maintain transparency into portfolio health through dashboards, scorecards, and executive-ready status communications Hands-On Program Delivery Personally lead a portfolio of high-priority strategic programs from initiation through close working on building the plan, running the workstreams, managing dependencies, and owning the outcome Roll up your sleeves and get into the details when programs need it. Partner directly with functional leaders across Sales, Operations, Supply Chain, Finance, CX, and Product to align on scope, sequencing, and interdependencies, then hold those alignments. Translate executive direction into structured workstreams with clear owners, milestones, and measurable outcomes; track execution against the plan and intervene early when it drifts Manage program-level dependencies, escalation paths, and change control; keep stakeholders informed without creating noise. Team Development Mentor and develop a team of program managers within the CBU; build their technical skills, business judgment, and ability to operate independently in a fast-moving environment. Review program plans and approaches with PMs before they go to stakeholders; sharpen the work before it surfaces. Model the execution standard you expect: structured plans, clear communication, proactive risk management, and full ownership of outcomes. Identify capability gaps across the PM team and drive targeted development plans; developing the team you need to effectively drive business outcomes. Operating Rhythm & Accountability Track commitments, actions, and decisions from key business meetings (MBRs, QBRs, staff reviews, cross-functional syncs); ensure follow-through without requiring leadership involvement in routine follow-up. Close open items with functional owners before they require escalation; bring solutions, not status updates. Maintain a live view of the leadership team's active initiatives, cross-functional dependencies, and priority risks; flag issues before they land unannounced. Prepare operational materials for the leadership team and
