Description
- Mimecast is looking for a Senior Program Manager to drive our new features and products from readiness through market launch. You’ll take end-to-end ownership of go-to-market programs for your slice of the portfolio, partnering closely with Engineering to plan and track the delivery work every launch depends on — and orchestrating the cross-functional effort across Product, Marketing, Sales Enablement, RevOps, Support, IT, and Legal that turns technical readiness into a successful launch
- This is a role with real influence: you’ll be technical enough to sit in the room with engineering leaders and understand trade-offs and risk, and you’ll build the launch plans and visibility that make leadership confident every time
- Own end-to-end program management for feature and product launches — building the plan, sequencing workstreams, and keeping a clear, current view of status
- Plan and track the Engineering deliverables each launch depends on, so go-to-market commitments are grounded in real, current progress
- Serve as the connective tissue across Product, Engineering, Marketing, Sales Enablement, RevOps, Support, IT, and Legal — making sure nothing falls through the cracks
- Engage credibly with engineering teams on scope, sequencing, and trade-offs, flagging technical risk before it threatens a date
- Run a consistent cadence with cross-functional leaders to review readiness, resolve issues, and keep every function aligned
- Build and continuously refine a repeatable go-to-market launch playbook, using AI tools to cut manual overhead in status synthesis and risk surfacing
- A genuine curiosity about how AI tools can make go-to-market execution faster and sharper, and a drive to try them rather than wait for someone else to
- Exceptional communication skills — able to translate complex, cross-functional dynamics into clear, actionable insight for technical teams and senior leadership alike
- Technical fluency — enough to engage credibly in trade-off, estimation, and risk conversations with engineering teams
- Bachelor’s degree in Business, Marketing, or a related field; MBA preferred. PMP certification preferred
- High ownership and a bias to action — you bring problems with proposed solutions, follow through without being asked, and measure yourself by what actually ships
- Demonstrable experience in Program Management, Technical Program Management, or Product Launch Management, owning go-to-market execution end-to-end — not just facilitating the process
- Strong cross-functional influence — the ability to drive alignment and accountability across Product, Engineering, Marketing, Sales, RevOps, Support, and IT without relying on organizational authority
