This role sits within a large enterprise’s Marketing Technology (MarTech) Program Management Office (PMO), delivered through a consulting partner. As a MarTech Technical PM, you will lead complex, cross organizational programs that enable the organization’s marketing technology strategy. You will partner closely with Product, Engineering, and Marketing stakeholders to build and maintain roadmaps, define requirements, manage delivery timelines, mitigate risks, and ensure clear, consistent communication across a globally distributed organization.
