Sr. Manager, PMO

Precor, Incorporated • Woodinville, WA

4d • $160,000 - $190,000 • Onsite

About The Position

The Sr. Manager, PMO is a working management role embedded within Precor's Commercial Business Unit. This person is in the work—executing, driving outcomes, and helping the organization turn priorities into action. They sit on the program intake committee, establish governance standards, mentor a team of program managers, and personally drive high-priority strategic programs from start to finish. This role has broad visibility across the Commercial Business Unit and works closely with leaders across Sales, Operations, Supply Chain, Finance, CX, Product, and the executive team. You will help shape how the organization prioritizes and executes its most important initiatives, bringing structure to complex work, connecting the dots across functions, and ensuring decisions translate into measurable outcomes. As a secondary function, this role provides direct operational support to the organization: tracking priorities, closing open items, and keeping the business operating rhythm running with discipline across functions. This includes creating visibility into what is happening, what is at risk, where decisions are needed, and what needs to move forward. This is not a traditional PMO oversight role. This is a role for someone who builds the system and works inside it every day and can establish the structure and standards needed to scale execution while also getting into the details when the work requires it. The right person brings strong judgment, urgency, and follow-through, and knows when to create structure, when to solve directly, and when to escalate.

• Track record of mentoring and developing program managers; you raise the team around you.
• Proven ability to operate across Sales, Operations, Supply Chain, Finance, and CX - connecting the dots others miss and holding people accountable across functional lines.
