Full job description

AVEVA is creating software trusted by over 90% of leading industrial companies.

Position: Senior Manager, Strategic Programs & Operations

Location: Cambridge, UK (Hybrid), Philadelphia, US (Hybrid)

Employment Type: Full-time

The Job

The Senior Manager, Strategic Programs & Operations supports the VP, Strategic Programs and Operations to improve internal operations, aligns strategic priorities, manage the dedicated CT Org budget, and manage high-impact projects on behalf of the Chief Technologist (CT) Organization. This role requires a proactive, organized, and highly adaptable leader who can influence without direct authority, lead cross-functional teams, and thrive in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment.

Key Responsibilities

Execution & Governance of Innovation Initiatives

Support execution and governance across the CT Org's portfolio of innovation initiatives.
Ensure consistency and discipline across accountability across processes, cadences, and communication discipline.

Budget & Resource Stewardship

Support planning, allocation, and tracking of the dedicated CTO budget, ensuring every investment directly supports the delivery of innovation initiatives and organizational priorities.
Help maintain a clear, defensible line of sight from budget decisions to strategic outcomes.

Strategic Alignment & Stakeholder Engagement

Act as an interface with enterprise stakeholders across the business to accelerate innovation delivery and remove organizational friction.
Help translate CT Org strategic priorities into operating plans, milestones, and governance routines that keep cross-functional teams aligned.

Program & Operations Management

Help continuously improve the operating rhythm of the CT Org: reporting, decision logs, risk registers, and executive communications.

Essential requirements

7+ years of experience in strategy, business operations, program/portfolio management, or chief-of-staff-type roles, ideally supporting a technology, R&D, or innovation function.
Track record of driving governance and accountability across cross-functional, matrixed teams without direct reporting authority.
Strong executive presence and judgment: able to filter and reframe operational detail into concise, decision-ready insight for senior leadership.
Comfort operating in a fast-paced, ambiguous, startup-like environment nested inside a larger enterprise.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills; experience producing executive-level reporting and governance artifacts.
Experience in industrial technology, energy, manufacturing, or infrastructure sectors is a plus but not required for this operations-focused role.

UK Benefits include:

Flexible benefits fund, emergency leave days, adoption leave, 28 days annual leave (plus bank holidays), pension, life cover, private medical insurance, parental leave, education assistance program.

It’s possible we’re hiring for this position in multiple countries, in which case the above benefits apply to the primary location. Specific benefits vary by country, but our packages are similarly comprehensive.
