About the job

We are Diversified, a global B2B events and media company that strengthens business communities by fostering a space, in person and online, for professionals and businesses to connect and grow. The company serves as a trusted partner across several industries including active lifestyle, business management, clean energy, commercial marine, healthcare, seafood, technology and more. Established in 1949 and headquartered in Portland, Maine, the global company has divisions and offices around the world in Australia, Canada, Hong Kong and the United Kingdom. Diversified is a third-generation, family-owned business.

About the Role

The Program Manager for Global Technology Infrastructure & Systems Alignment will lead the planning, coordination, and execution of enterprise-wide technology initiatives — including HRIS platform consolidation, internal communications tools, and other strategic programs that span our global footprint. Reporting to senior technology leadership, this role serves as the central coordination point between executive stakeholders, divisional teams, implementation vendors, and cross-functional contributors across the US, UK, Australia, Canada, and beyond.

We are looking for someone who brings both strategic clarity and a strong command of the details — a trusted partner to leadership and a steady anchor for the teams doing the work. We welcome candidates from all backgrounds and career paths, and we are committed to building a team that reflects the diversity of the communities we serve.

What You'll Do

• Own end-to-end program management for complex, global technology initiatives — from planning and initiation through go-live, stabilization, and post-implementation review

• Define and maintain comprehensive program roadmaps, including milestones, dependencies, risk registers, and resource plans across multiple concurrent workstreams

• Serve as the primary liaison between executive leadership, divisional leads, and implementation vendors to align on strategy, priorities, and delivery timelines

• Establish and maintain program governance frameworks, including escalation paths, decision-making structures, and consistent stakeholder reporting

• Develop and execute change management strategies that prepare global teams for transitions and drive successful platform adoption

• Apply Agile and Scrum methodologies where applicable, and support team members in building confidence with program practices

• Build trusted, inclusive relationships across all levels of the organization — from C-suite executives to functional contributors across divisions and geographies

What You'll Bring

• 5+ years of experience in technology program or project management, with demonstrated success delivering large-scale, cross-functional technology programs — equivalent experience gained through non-traditional paths is welcome

• Experience with complex, multi-stakeholder technology implementations, particularly HCM/HRIS platforms (e.g., Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, UKG, Ceridian) or similar enterprise systems

• PMP, Scrum, or Agile certification preferred — candidates with equivalent hands-on experience are encouraged to apply

• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to build alignment across diverse teams and present clearly to senior audiences

• Demonstrated ability to bring structure and clarity to ambiguous, high-complexity environments

• Experience working with globally distributed teams across multiple time zones and organizational structures

Travel: Travel may be required based on program needs.
