About The Job

A problem isn’t truly solved until it’s solved for all. That’s why Googlers build products that help create opportunities for everyone, whether down the street or across the globe. As a Program Manager at Google, you’ll lead complex, multi-disciplinary projects from start to finish — working with stakeholders to plan requirements, manage project schedules, identify risks, and communicate clearly with cross-functional partners across the company. Your projects will often span offices, time zones, and hemispheres. It's your job to coordinate the players and keep them up to date on progress and deadlines.

Energy is a key lever of our operational and value chain decarbonization roadmaps. In this role, you will be responsible for leading our carbon reduction strategy, execution, and analytics related to energy instrument procurement across our portfolio. As part of these efforts, you will work with various teams to obtain data, interpret it into actionable insights, and drive emissions reduction initiatives to support and guide our clean energy and other strategic efforts. You will also be responsible for providing relevant metrics, portfolio insights and analysis to support and guide our clean energy strategic efforts. Through collaboration with key stakeholders, you will help to shape our perspective on carbon emissions mitigation and enable the broader carbon reduction ecosystem.

The Global Sustainability team enables Google to build a more sustainable future for everyone by driving strategy and solutions. We drive the development and implementation of Google’s global sustainability strategy to further empower action, ensure alignment and prioritization, identify leadership opportunities, and mitigate risks. We drive sustainability strategy and programs on carbon, circular economy, water, product integration, reporting, and employee engagement, while serving as a sustainability leadership advocate internally and externally.
