About The Position

This role will be based in Sunnyvale, San Francisco or Mountain View. At LinkedIn, our approach to flexible work is centered on trust and optimized for culture, connection, clarity, and the evolving needs of our business. The work location of this role is hybrid, meaning it will be performed both from home and from a LinkedIn office on select days, as determined by the business needs of the team. The Program Manager is a trusted operator who delivers high-impact programs that enable scale and drive growth. Within LinkedIn's Finance Programs Office, this role plays a central part in translating strategy into action, creating clarity, aligning stakeholders, and accelerating execution across Finance and the broader company to advance key priorities. As an individual contributor, you will own end-to-end delivery of a portfolio of complex, cross-functional programs. Serving as an objective "hub of the wheel," you will mobilize early-stage programs, remove blockers, and land complex change with clear measurement and outcomes. You will also coach and mentor fellow project managers and champion the best practices that raise the bar for program management across the team. We're seeking a systems thinker who thrives in ambiguity, brings cross-functional rigor, and builds strong, trust-based relationships. The ideal candidate pairs deep program management experience with high agency, moving with clarity, executing with speed, and delivering durable impact at scale.
