About the Role

The Total Rewards Strategy & Enablement (TR S&E) team translates people strategy into business impact, building the infrastructure, programs, and systems that make Total Rewards work at scale. We bridge strategy and execution, partnering with People leadership and cross-functional teams across Finance, Legal, and the business to turn ambiguous problems into durable programs. We’re looking for a collaborative, action-oriented Project Manager to join the Total Rewards Strategy and Enablement team. In this role, you’ll lead business-critical People projects, with a primary focus on mergers and acquisitions (M&A).

Responsibilities

  • Project manage People M&A workstreams from diligence and planning through close and post-close execution, including organizational alignment, employee data, onboarding, recruiting, and people program integration.
  • Serve as a central coordination point across Total Rewards, People Partners, People Operations, People Systems, Recruiting, People Support, Corporate Development, Legal, Finance, and Corporate Technology.
  • Align plans, dependencies, decisions, and accountability with transaction timelines.
  • Develop and run integration and change-management plans to provide necessary information and support to functional leads, acquired Stripes, and other affected audiences.
  • Identify cross-functional dependencies, risks, and blockers early, coordinating resolution and escalating issues as needed.
  • Establish feedback and support mechanisms for acquired Stripes, including surveys, office hours, and centralized support channels, using feedback to improve integration plans and change-management approaches.
  • Build and improve People M&A’s infrastructure, including project plans, templates, checklists, playbooks, reporting, and retrospective documentation.
  • Build capability across People workstreams through documentation, cross-training, and shared practices that support more consistent future integrations.
  • Support other business-critical and transformational projects across Total Rewards and the People team as needed.

Requirements

  • 7+ years of project or program management experience at a global company.
  • 2+ years project managing workstreams within the M&A lifecycle, including diligence, integration planning, close readiness, and post-close integration.
  • Experience leading complex, cross-functional programs from planning through execution.
  • Experience building repeatable program infrastructure, such as integration playbooks, project-plan templates, readiness checklists, risk logs, or retrospective processes.
  • Proven ability to turn ambiguous problems into structured, repeatable programs.
  • Comfortable building new programs in a scaling environment while improving and standardizing how work gets done.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including executive updates, decision memos, and operator playbooks.
  • Ability to guide project teams through complex work in a direct, approachable, and inclusive way.
  • Experience managing senior cross-functional stakeholders across Total Rewards, People Partners, People Systems, Recruiting, Corporate Development, Legal, and Finance.
  • Ability to build alignment, raise risks, and escalate issues appropriately.
  • Comfortable working with data and systems such as Workday and Greenhouse.
  • Ability to use data to clarify decisions, communicate recommendations, and define requirements with People Systems partners.
  • Focus on the experience of acquired Stripes and the teams operating the program.
  • Ability to manage competing priorities and adapt in a fast-paced environment.
  • Ability to work effectively independently and across teams, bring structure to complexity, and follow through on details.
