Position Overview

The Senior Manager of Portfolio Management is the critical function responsible for enabling the Fiscal Year Roadmap by translating strategic objectives into an executable, capacity-balanced program sequence. This role ensures all work undertaken aligns with the fiscal year strategy. The Senior Manager will sequence programs to balance against available organizational capacity and meet high-level business goals. This is the practical, risk-mitigating mandate that prevents the organization from collapsing under too many simultaneous projects, preserving focus, user adoption, and time-to-market.

Responsibilities

Portfolio Strategy & Prioritization

+ Strategic Alignment: Partner with senior leadership and key stakeholders to ensure the portfolio is consistently focused on high-value initiatives that directly support GET’s fiscal year strategy

+ Capacity Balancing & Sequencing: Facilitate the process to sequence and stagger programs, balancing demand against available capacity across critical resource pools

+ Portfolio Rebalancing: Proactively and dynamically rebalance the portfolio based on delays, changes, and new discoveries to maintain overall strategic flow and meet launch targets

+ Dependency Management: Proactively identify, visualize, and manage inter-program dependencies to mitigate integration risks and inform sequencing decisions

Conflict Resolution & Risk Mitigation

+ Mitigating Resource and Timeline Conflicts across programs: Consciously adjust program timelines (e.g., UAT entry, launch dates) to avoid peak bandwidth conflicts across all stakeholders

+ Managing Work in Progress (WIP): Act as the practical mandate that controls the overall WIP across the organization. Sequence programs and define the necessary groundwork required before a program can officially start

Roadmap Management, Communication & Leadership

+ Roadmap Ownership: Own and maintain the enterprise-level portfolio roadmap, providing a single, authoritative source of truth for all major program timelines and their capacity-driven sequencing

+ Facilitate Executive Decision-Making: Facilitate portfolio governance meetings and provide necessary insights to drive decision-making around priority shifts, resource allocation, and risk resolution

+ Portfolio Health Reporting: Establishes and reports on the overall strategic health and focus of the portfolio to executive stakeholders, emphasizing alignment and resource utilization

+ Continuous Improvement & Mentorship: Provides leadership and mentorship to direct reports (e.g., Portfolio Analysts). Champions change and identify opportunities for efficiency and innovation across the entire portfolio management system

Minimum Qualifications

+ Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, Engineering, or a related field

+ 10+ years experience in Portfolio Management, Program Management Office (PMO) leadership, or a related strategic planning function within a complex, matrixed organization

+ Proven track record of successfully managing a portfolio and taking responsibility for realized business outcomes (benefits, value), not just on-time delivery

+ Exceptional communication and presentation skills, capable of synthesizing complex portfolio data into clear executive narratives. Demonstrated ability to drive consensus and strategic prioritization among competing executive stakeholders

+ Deep understanding of the full program lifecycle, from strategic intent through to enablement

+ Strong analytical skills with the ability to use data to justify program sequencing and resource allocation decisions

+ SAFe or Relevant certification in Portfolio or Program Management is highly desirable
