## Description

## Job Description

We’re looking for a collaborative, action-oriented Project Manager to join the Total Rewards Strategy and Enablement team. In this role, you’ll lead business-critical People projects, with a primary focus on mergers and acquisitions (M&A).

## Responsibilities

- Project manage People M&A workstreams from diligence and planning through close and post-close execution. Workstreams may include organizational alignment, employee data, onboarding, recruiting, and people program integration.

- Serve as a central coordination point across Total Rewards, People Partners, People Operations, People Systems, Recruiting, People Support, Corporate Development, Legal, Finance, and Corporate Technology.

- Align plans, dependencies, decisions, and accountability with transaction timelines.

- Develop and run integration and change-management plans that give functional leads, acquired Stripes, and other affected audiences the information and support they need at each stage of a transaction.

- Identify cross-functional dependencies, risks, and blockers early. Coordinate resolution and escalate issues when needed to protect integration timelines and the Stripe experience.

- Establish feedback and support mechanisms for acquired Stripes, including surveys, office hours, and centralized support channels. Use feedback to improve integration plans and change-management approaches.

- Build and improve People M&A’s infrastructure, including project plans, templates, checklists, playbooks, reporting, and retrospective documentation.

- Build capability across People workstreams through documentation, cross-training, and shared practices that support more consistent future integrations.

- Support other business-critical and transformational projects across Total Rewards and the People team as needed.

## Requirements

- You have 7+ years of project or program management experience at a global company, including 2+ years project managing workstreams within the M&A lifecycle, including diligence, integration planning, close readiness, and post-close integration.

- You have experience leading complex, cross-functional programs from planning through execution and building repeatable program infrastructure, such as integration playbooks, project-plan templates, readiness checklists, risk logs, or retrospective processes.

- You have a track record of turning ambiguous problems into structured, repeatable programs. You’re comfortable building new programs in a scaling environment while improving and standardizing how work gets done.

- You have excellent written and verbal communication skills. You can write a one-page executive update, a decision memo tailored to stakeholders, and a step-by-step operator playbook with equal fluency. You guide project teams through complex work in a direct, approachable, and inclusive way.

- You can manage senior cross-functional stakeholders across Total Rewards, People Partners, People Systems, Recruiting, Corporate Development, Legal, and Finance. You know when to build alignment, raise a risk, and escalate.

- You’re comfortable working with data and systems such as Workday and Greenhouse. You use data to clarify decisions, communicate recommendations, and define requirements with People Systems partners.

- You focus on the experience of acquired Stripes and the teams operating the program, not only on program artifacts.

- You can manage competing priorities and adapt in a fast-paced environment. You work effectively independently and across teams, bring structure to complexity, and follow through on the details that make a program successful.
