mubi - Lead Program Manager (PMO)

• You've spent significant time as a program manager driving large, cross-functional initiatives to delivery, and you have a technical background — ideally you started as a technical program manager and grew into the broader generalist role. That technical grounding matters: you can hold your own in an architecture discussion, tell a real dependency from a manufactured one, and earn the respect of strong engineers. But the day job is program leadership, not technical depth. • You're a can-do, sleeves-rolled-up operator who's happiest making things happen rather than administering them. You bring structure and rigour — clear milestones, honest dependency mapping, crisp reporting, relentless unblocking, on-time delivery — without becoming a source of bureaucracy. You're an excellent communicator who can flex between an engineer and an executive in the same hour, and you're comfortable building something new with a high degree of autonomy. You're at ease across multiple time zones and offices, and you know how to keep distributed teams aligned without drowning them in meetings. • Bachelor's degree in a relevant field, or equivalent practical experience. • 5+ years in program management, with a proven track record of leading complex, cross-functional initiatives to delivery. • Familiarity with software delivery workflows and the challenges of developer productivity in a scaling organisation. • Exceptional written and verbal communication, with the ability to translate complex technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders. • Strong problem-solving, attention to detail, and the ability to manage competing priorities. • A self-starter who brings organisation and direction to ambiguous problem spaces. • The ambition to build and mentor a team in the future, and a passion for fast-paced, scale-up environments. • Experience supporting technical projects within a larger product and engineering organisation. • Strong business judgment and strategic thinking — able to see the big picture and make connections across teams and issues. • A proactive approach to anticipating issues and solving problems before they escalate. • We want to make cinema accessible to everyone. We believe people from different backgrounds bring different ideas that foster innovation and engagement, allowing us to attract great people to develop the best experience for our users.
