About The Position

The Coca‑Cola Company is evolving into a more digital‑first, data‑driven enterprise to fuel sustainable growth, increase speed to market, and unlock new sources of value. Rapid advances in technology, data, and AI create a unique opportunity to accelerate the KO system’s next chapter of growth by reimagining our core competitive advantages. Building on a strong foundation of modernized infrastructure, global digital experiences, early data capabilities, and proven use cases, we are now shifting from early wins to scaled, end‑to‑end impact on growth, productivity, and efficiency. This next phase moves us from an analog world to a fully digitized one, powered by a digital growth engine that embeds data, technology, and AI into our most critical business domains.

The role partners closely with product teams, engineering, data, and business stakeholders to translate digital strategy into actionable programs, driving alignment and accountability across complex, matrixed environments. This position is ideal for a hands‑on leader who thrives in ambiguity, demonstrates strong program management discipline, and brings a deep understanding of how digital platforms, data, and technology ecosystems enable scalable business impact.
