Program Manager, Enterprise Platform Implementation

JLL•Chicago, CO

6d•Onsite

About The Position

JLL's Corporate Function Technology team is leading a portfolio of enterprise platform initiatives that are reshaping both how corporate functions serve JLL’s global workforce and how those functions operate internally. These programs span AI-powered employee experience, financial and operational system modernization, process automation, and organizational change — all in service of JLL’s Accelerate 2030 strategy. This is a high-visibility team working at the intersection of technology and transformation, with active programs underway and a growing roadmap. Each initiative on this team involves multiple workstreams, multiple project plans, and a large cross-functional stakeholder group. This role will begin by supporting the team’s highest-priority active program and expand to others over time. In each context, you’ll be responsible for reconciling and aligning plans into a single coherent picture and keeping delivery on track. You’ll work closely with JLL teams and external implementation partners across a complex, evolving landscape — moving quickly and independently while staying tightly coordinated with program leadership. You will step into a program which is live and moving fast — processes, plans, and priorities will shift. The right candidate can build structure where it doesn’t yet exist and is energized by that reality, not deterred by it.
