Expedia

Do you naturally lead cross-group teams to gain alignment, simplify processes, and drive efficiency to exceed an outcome? Expedia’s Conversation Platform & Customer Engagement (CPCE) group is looking for a high-performing Program Manager to join our Product team.

Expedia is building the Travel Platform to bring the world within reach for millions of customers. As part of this, we are building EG's Conversation Platform, which automates the most challenging travel journeys and intelligently connects travellers, suppliers, and agents. Our Chatbots use AI to learn new capabilities and continuously improve through network effects.
 

What you'll do with us:

• Work across Product and Technology functions to ensure alignment and efficiency.
• Design and implement operating standards for how workstreams and programs should be led, tracked, and executed.
• Organize and motivate teams to deliver against our objectives and key results, and driving decision making.
• Work with and train other Product team members to develop processes and standard methodologies to support the Product function in CPCE.
• Set up and maintain portfolio and program management tools.
• Serve as the primary point of contact for CPCE for cross company intake, Product Reviews, and Product Planning standardization forums.
• Evangelize the platform and guide other teams to enable their product vision while maintaining the overall Conversational Experience quality.
• Work closely with the Product Leadership team, and engage regularly with CPCE leadership.
• Help lead the organization through change, evolution, and growth.
   

Who you are:

• 8+ years of Program Management or related experience in a forward-thinking, fast paced team environment
• Demonstrated ability to work in a highly collaborative environment with heavy emphasis on partnership
• Experience driving strategic initiatives while engaging and collaborating with multi-discipline teams and leaders
• Ability to communicate effectively at all levels, including concise verbal and written executive-level communications
• For clarity, this is not a technical, software development PM position; this is a business change and program management role that requires product/technology partnership
