Program Manager

BCforward is currently seeking a highly motivated Program Manager V (Compensation Programs) for a remote opportunity.

The Role

This is not a "status tracker" role — this is a frontline driver of a high-visibility compensation initiative. You'll sit at the intersection of business, HR, and engineering, bringing structure to ambiguity and momentum to complex, cross-functional work.

If you come from a strong consulting background and know how to walk into chaos, build a plan, align stakeholders, and deliver — this is your lane.

What You'll Actually Be Doing (Day-to-Day)

• Own and drive the end-to-end project plan — timelines, dependencies, risks, everything.
• Schedule and lead meetings independently — drive outcomes, not just discussions.
• Partner across HR, Engineering, Compensation, and Business teams to keep everyone aligned.
• Jump into issues as they arise — identify, escalate, and solve proactively.
• Gather, refine, and document business + technical requirements.
• Track progress, push accountability, and ensure deliverables don't slip.
• Translate complex updates into clear, executive-ready communication.
• Support testing cycles, readiness, and rollout activities.

What You Bring (Must-Have)

• Experience from a Big 4 or top-tier consulting firm.
• Strong Project / Program Management background (4–8 years ideal).
• Exceptional communication and presentation skills.
• Proven ability in requirements gathering & stakeholder alignment.
• Working understanding of end-to-end compensation processes.
• Experience driving cross-functional collaboration in fast-paced environments.

What You Can Learn (Teachable)

• Compensation structures and frameworks.
• End-to-end system workflows and internal tools.

Nice to Have (Bonus Points)

• Exposure to Salesforce (Org62 or similar environments).
• Experience working on M&A-related initiatives.
• Prior work with large-scale enterprise transformations.

Logistics That Matter

• Remote: Fully remote across the US.
• Time Zones: Must be flexible to support EST or PST teams.
• Interview Process: 2–3 rounds + possible assignment.
• Hiring Timeline: Immediate / ASAP.
• Extension: Strong potential for extension or full-time conversion.

What Success Looks Like

You're not waiting for direction — you're creating clarity, driving alignment, and delivering results. Teams rely on you because things move forward when you're involved.
