The right person will build trust with the client while having the judgment and confidence to challenge unrealistic expectations, control scope, and deliver difficult messages when necessary.

Hold Persivia and client stakeholders accountable for decisions and deadlines. Build a strong client relationship without becoming passive or overcommitting Persivia. 3. Cross-Functional Coordination Coordinate Product, Engineering, Implementation, and Accounts teams around a single plan. Identify delivery risks early and drive them to resolution. Escalate issues quickly and recommend a clear path forward. 5. Reporting & Governance Provide concise, fact-based reporting to client and Persivia leadership. 6. Team Growth Work hands-on as the program/project manager initially. Transition into overseeing a program management team as Persivia builds one out. Required Qualifications 10+ years leading complex, client-facing technology programs. Strong executive presence and exceptional client-management skills. Proven ability to lead through ambiguity, conflict, and delivery pressure. Experience managing programs with significant technical dependencies.
