Ciudad de México, Ciudad de México Pearson A tiempo completo
Description

Join our Team today The English Language Learning (ELL) division of Pearson is a complex, international business, dedicated to helping people around the world achieve their dreams through learning and verifying English skills. We are seeking an experienced, self-motivated, ambitious programme manager who is comfortable taking on a portfolio of our most complex programmes to ensure they are driven to completion, alongside driving general programme management expertise within the division. 

The Opportunity 

As a Senior Programme Manager, you will own the execution of our most complex and critical strategic programmes, alongside developing programme management best practice in the division. 

We have many strategic initiatives in place that, if executed correctly, will simplify our operations, accelerate our growth, modernise our systems, and improve our profitability. However, there are many interdependencies and complexities that risk slowing us down if not managed correctly. You will be responsible for ensuring these programmes stay on track, flagging and resolving risks and managing stakeholders.

In addition to managing strategic programmes, you will help drive ELL's approach to programme management, bringing best practice and new tools and techniques from your experience to drive excellence at Pearson. 

What you'll do

  • Own end-to-end delivery of complex, strategic programmes
  • Adjust milestones and expectations to adapt to changing priorities while still driving execution and ensuring that high standards of performance are met
  • Develop relationships with key stakeholders throughout the business to ensure smooth programme operations
  • Form an understanding of key dependencies, unblocking where necessary and monitoring where risks are developing
  • Manage milestone and KPI reporting
  • Develop best practice for programme management for the division, including where necessary developing tools, dashboards, and visualisation
  • Drive use cases for AI for programme management within the division

What you'll bring

  • At least 3 years of experience of end-to-end programme management within large corporate environments, ideally involving multiple functions and / or stakeholder groups, and at least 7 years of corporate career experience

  • Ability to be incredibly self-directed, and a willingness to dig to find the right information and stakeholders

  • A creative and ambitious approach to problem-solving

  • An ability to influence across different teams and specialties to get things done, with strong communication skills across sales, tech, product, marketing, comms and legal

  • Fluency in English

  • Project or programme management qualifications are preferred

Why Pearson

  • Change people's lives through driving education outcomes that really make a difference
  • Work in an international team of people who are passionate about English learning
  • A flexible and trust-based culture that values outcomes over office presence
     

Other Details

This is a full-time and remote role based in Mexico. Occasional travel may be required to attend workshops or meetings.  

This role reports to the Director of Operations & Governance, who is in charge of strategy execution within ELL, and also gives the opportunity to get involved in other initiatives within ELL that aim to improve our operations & governance.
