Best VS. Average Candidate:
The ideal candidate brings deep experience in regulated industries, agile delivery, and a strong understanding of modern MarTech platforms.
This is a mix of program and delivery manager type of role, not clear cut program/project management as related to title, as they will need to lead the delivery of personalization program so looking for candidates who have strong delivery management experience paired with some PM skills.
Ideally someone who is very savvy with stakeholders (lots of visibility with stakeholders for this one unlike the fingers to keys resources they usually look for)
Communication is paramount here, the HM needs consistent and clear communication
FYI - The current person in the role is both a ceritifed scrum master and brings agile principles to the team, but also has program and project management experience helping to deliver key releases and implementations across multiple teams and resources (delivery management).
They have over 10 years of experience, and have worked at large organizations and managed teams of over 50+, often helping the manager manage the development team.
Note: HM is not looking for the exact same profile, e.g. they may not be doing as many scrum duties, and HM would love to see personalization/MarTech experience, though wanted to share to give some context.
Please note there is some rate flexibility for exceptional candidates (MarTech, personalization, marketing and sales experience with strong communication and stakeholder management skills), if you find such a candidate who wants a higher rate than what is listed, feel free to message TA/Mathilde with the profile and context.
