Director of Program Management

Director of Program Management

Mission & Integration | Full-Time | Hybrid | Waxahachie, Texas

Americase is a Texas-based manufacturer and distributor of protective cases and specialized shipping solutions, and we are growing. As Americase International expands into new operating companies and capabilities, we are looking for a Director of Program Management to build and lead the Program Management Office (PMO) that will carry “The Americase Way” across the enterprise and around the world.

Why Join Us?

• Build the PMO: Stand up and shape the Program Management Office and its methodology, rather than inheriting a finished one.
• Enterprise-Wide Impact: Partner with every department, from operations to functional teams, and decide where the organization focuses its energy and resources.
• Global Growth Path: Start with Americase, LLC and grow the role as Americase International establishes new operating companies worldwide.
• Flexibility: Work in a hybrid/remote arrangement with travel to the locations and teams you support.
• Entrepreneurial Culture: Bring structure and discipline to a company that values urgency, innovation, and getting things done.

Position Summary

The Director of Program Management is an enterprise-wide leadership role responsible for the Program Management Office (PMO) within the Mission & Integration Department. Reporting to the Vice President, Mission & Integration, this leader engages across all Americase departments to bridge pockets of activity and silos of information, bringing efficiency, risk, trends, and control together under one Project Management (PM) methodology.

The Director prioritizes the many improvement efforts underway, focusing resources on the processes causing ambiguity, wasted time, and downstream rework. This role also helps stand up new departments and functions with documented procedures and value stream pathways, and integrates Mission Assurance and Quality Assurance disciplines into projects, all while preserving the entrepreneurial culture that has made Americase successful. The ideal candidate thinks strategically, acts operationally, and thrives where structure must be created, ambiguity is common, and influence matters more than authority.

• Enterprise PM Outreach: Extend PM disciplines to Americase facilities, the supply chain, and future Americase International operating companies.

• Organizational Capability: Build capability through improved processes that simplify system and design complexity and minimize human-driven complications.
