AI Portfolio Manager •
Project Manager II

We are hiring a senior AI Portfolio Manager to partner with VP and SVP leadership and support CEO/CTO-level reporting on AI strategy, progress, and impact. This role will bring clarity, structure, and narrative coherence to a growing portfolio of AI initiatives and ensure executive leadership has a trusted, decision-ready view of AI investments across the enterprise.

• Partner with VP/SVP stakeholders to shape the enterprise AI narrative for executive forums
• Maintain a holistic, executive-level view of the AI portfolio (initiatives, priorities, risks, dependencies, outcomes)
• Establish an AI portfolio governance and reporting layer tailored for CEO/CTO consumption
• Translate technical and delivery signals into strategic insights, trade-offs, and recommendations
• Produce executive-ready dashboards, briefings, and readouts
• Proactively surface portfolio-level risks, trends, and decision points
• Act as a trusted advisor to senior leadership on AI progress and readiness to scale
• AI initiatives are understood and managed as a single enterprise portfolio
• Risks and trade-offs are surfaced early with clear leadership options
• The role is viewed as a strategic thought partner, not a reporting function

This position description identifies the responsibilities and tasks typically associated with the performance of the position. Other relevant essential functions may be required.

• 12+ years in portfolio, program, or enterprise initiative leadership
• Proven experience supporting VP, SVP, and C-level stakeholders
• Strong ability to craft executive narratives, not just status reports
• Experience managing complex, multi-stream portfolios (AI, data, or digital preferred)
• High executive presence, judgment, and communication skills
• Comfortable operating in ambiguity and fast-evolving environments
