What do we need

We are looking for a Program Manager to lead our release management and broader program delivery for the Dotmatics ELN Platform. This is a high-impact role that combines hands-on release execution with strategic program oversight, sitting at the intersection of planning, delivery, and cross-functional alignment. You will have the opportunity to have real influence over how program and release management operate across the business, gaining broad visibility across the organization, working with and presenting to stakeholders from engineering teams through to executive leadership, and supporting notable impact.

You will bring the operational precision of a release manager alongside the governance and rigor of a program manager, ensuring that releases are delivered with quality and consistency and that the wider program of work is well-planned with dependencies clearly visible. You will work closely with Engineering, Product Management, Quality Assurance, Customer Operations, Services, Marketing, and Sales, operating as a trusted collaborative and strategic partner with a clear, decisive voice across all stages of delivery.

In this role you will get to

Define and maintain a clear release calendar. Provide timely updates on release readiness, risk, and post-release adoption metrics across all relevant audiences

Lead coordination of in-flight work across Jira (our system of record). Identify and mitigate release risk, flagging unrealistic plans early and ensuring alignment with Product Management and Services to support escalations and customer-specific builds

Align release artifacts across Product, Engineering, Marketing (including tier 1 and tier 2 launches), Sales (enablement), and Services (training)

Lead cross-functional release meetings and asynchronous processes as the definitive voice driving the holistic release process forward

Program Management

Lead program-level planning and governance across the ELN Platform. Manage dependencies, milestones, and delivery roadmaps across multiple concurrent workstreams
