We are seeking a Program Manager III to lead expansion strategy for our Rural Super Rural Plus (RSR+) program within R2L.

This position requires a self-directed operator who can navigate ambiguity with autonomy, deep dive across a wide range of functional domains, and communicate with impact at every level — up to VP-level leadership.Key job responsibilitiesIn this role, you will own strategic expansion planning for the RSR+ program, including evaluation, prioritization, and the development and maintenance of expansion roadmaps that guide the program's long-term growth trajectory.

You will scope and drive expansion initiatives across a range of strategic programs, translating ambiguous opportunities into structured, executable plans.Operating with a high degree of autonomy, you will partner with Network Design to validate and align expansion priorities with network capacity and infrastructure realities. You will coordinate across cross-functional stakeholders — spanning design, selection, supply chain, capacity, operations, optimization, and quality — operating within a defined RACI to remove blockers and drive decisions that keep programs moving forward. Through data-driven decision making, you will synthesize complex, multi-source inputs into clear, executive-ready narratives and recommendations — communicating expansion strategy, risks, and program status to VP-level leadership through written and verbal business reviews. You will identify risks and interdependencies early and drive resolution across stakeholder groups.A day in the lifeYour day spans capacity feasibility analysis, driving programs through their decision gates, and building OP-level business cases that distill months of network-planning complexity into crisp, decision-ready briefs.
