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.

The Privacy, Safety, and Security (PSS) organization is accountable for driving Google’s privacy, safety, and security outcomes. The team’s mission is to keep users safe as a pillar within the Core organization. In this role, you will lead executive level strategic communications and engagement initiatives within the PSS organization. You will play a critical role in shaping and delivering clear, consistent, and engaging communications for leaders that foster a shared understanding of PSS's idea, strategy, and impact across the organization.

You will not only craft compelling narratives and execute communication plans but also drive key organizational initiatives, partnering with PSS’s top executives across engineering, product, and program management.

• Translate technical concepts, project updates, and organizational changes into clear, concise, and engaging content tailored for various internal audiences across PSS and Google.
• Manage the rhythm and channels of PSS internal communications, including all‑hands, newsletters, internal sites, and leadership updates.
• Establish mechanisms for feedback and measure the effectiveness of communication and engagement programs, using data to iterate and improve. Identify communication opportunities and risks, and develop mitigation strategies.
