About The Position

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. As a Program Manager for Strategic Communications in our Sustainability Advocacy team, you will drive operational aspects of the communications and storytelling pipeline, internal alignment, coordination and communication, and support development of written and multimedia materials aimed at external audiences, ensuring that our work is well understood by external stakeholders and that we are using Google’s voice to drive broader, ecosystem-level impact. In this role, you will require collaborating across a variety of internal teams at Google working on sustainability, policy, marketing, and communications. The Global Sustainability team enables Google to build a more sustainable future for everyone by driving strategy and solutions. We drive the development and implementation of Google’s global sustainability strategy to further empower action, ensure alignment and prioritization, identify leadership opportunities, and mitigate risks. We drive sustainability strategy and programs on carbon, circular economy, water, product integration, reporting, and employee engagement, while serving as a sustainability leadership advocate internally and externally.
