About The Position
Imagine what you could do here. At Apple, great ideas have a way of becoming great products, services, and customer experiences very quickly. Bring passion and dedication to your job and there's no telling what you could accomplish. IS&T is the engine behind everything Apple does for customers and for the people who build for them. It’s Apple’s central nervous system. Supporting 2.5 billion active Apple devices, processing billions of secure transactions, and keeping the technology that defines modern life running flawlessly, IS&T makes the impossible feel effortless. The WW PMO team is responsible for driving cross-functional execution of enterprise-wide data privacy initiatives across Apple. The team partners closely with Privacy Legal, IS&T, OCM, and business stakeholders to ensure that regulatory changes are efficiently translated into system requirements and delivered on time against strict compliance deadlines.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree required (Master's preferred) in Business, Information Systems, Law, or a related field
- 5+ years of experience in cross-functional program or portfolio management, ideally within a highly regulated, compliance-driven environment
- Demonstrated expertise in readiness management, scope management, scheduling, resource planning, and execution governance across large-scale, global multi-stakeholder programs
- Experience building and owning program reporting infrastructure: dashboards, weekly status reports, risk logs, and executive briefings
- Strong understanding of data privacy regulations (e.g. GDPR, PIPL, CCPA) along with the operational and systems implications to ensure compliance, then translate regulatory or legal requirements into system and process requirements that technical and business teams can deliver
- Exceptional communication skills — verbal, written, and executive presentation — with the ability to synthesize complexity for senior leadership audiences
Nice To Haves
- Comfortable operating in a fast changing highly ambiguous environment where multiple priorities need to be managed; able to bring structure and clarity where none exists while keeping on track
- Experience with macOS tools (Keynote, Pages, etc) and enterprise program management tools (e.g. Wrike, Jira, Smartsheet) within IS&T delivery models
- Able to operate independently with conviction, influence without authority, and drive cross-functional teams to the right decisions with speed and precision
- Ability to drive business transformation with systems architecture, operating model design, and organizational change management
- Brings a collaborative, service-oriented mindset — ensuring Legal and Privacy teams remain the authoritative decision-makers while the PMO enables clarity, pace, and accountability across the program
Responsibilities
