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.

In Google Search, we're reimagining what it means to search for information – any way and anywhere. To do that, we need to solve complex engineering challenges and expand our infrastructure, while maintaining a universally accessible and useful experience that people around the world rely on. In joining the Search team, you'll have an opportunity to make an impact on billions of people globally.

• Manage high-visibility vendor operations, projects, and programs under the human rating program, which contributes significantly to the quality of Google Search.

• Manage operations workflow, forecasting, and delivery for a large-scale vendor workforce, while monitoring progress against goals and managing operations to meet and exceed Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). Collaborate with vendors to define compliance expectations, building partnerships founded on transparency and shared success.

• Drive continuous improvement efforts to enhance operational performance and client experience by partnering with internal business functions. Perform data analysis and execute data-informed initiatives that will improve our internal stakeholder experience and drive business growth.

• Collaborate with Technical Program Managers, Product Managers, Engineers, and Data Scientists, and work with a variety of stakeholders.
