We're looking for a Program Manager (IC3), People Strategy to manage key initiatives that make Etsy's people programs work better.

This role sits on the People & Workplace team, which means your portfolio of projects varies - from operationalizing a policy change, overseeing a program launch, creating communications and decks for the org etc. The through-line isn't the subject matter — it's your ability to shepherd teams from ambiguous problems to structured solutions.

You will collaborate across multiple teams to ensure that solutions are delivered successfully.

Create roadmaps: Visualize roadmaps for teams to be able to understand where we're headed and how they contribute. Help document program timelines, scope, and ownership. Support cross team collaboration: Act as a key point of contact for team members and stakeholders to ensure alignment and optimize communication to support efficient decision making. Manage up, down and across: Help track progress and ensure regular updates are shared to ensure accountability of the team on deadlines.

Escalate issues when needed and assist in removing roadblocks. Orchestrate change management: Support senior leaders in rolling out changes, ensure proper tracking and communication of milestones, and that programs are eventually integrated into our day to day operations. Facilitate retrospectives: Assist with post-program evaluation by gathering feedback from stakeholders, measuring progress against goals, and identifying areas for improvement.

Insights and knowledge sharing: Facilitate knowledge sharing across the People & Workplace teams to enhance a learning culture and ensure the org is leveraging data, research and insights to inform their work. Of course, this is just a sample of the kinds of work this role will require! You should assume that your role will encompass other tasks, too, and that your job duties and responsibilities may change from time to time at Etsy's discretion, or otherwise applicable with local law.

Must have experience leveraging ai to enhance workflows.

Cross-Functional Collaboration: Comfortable working with a variety of teams and stakeholders to align on program goals and timelines. Agile change agent: Familiarity with how to support teams during transitions, maintain order through ambiguity and remain flexible through change.

Communication Skills: Strong written and verbal communication skills to keep stakeholders informed and aligned. Bonus if you have experience writing employee facing communications or developing learning materials.

Problem-Solving: Able to think critically and proactively identify challenges and solutions on a variety of topics within People & Workplace functions. Mission driven: A trust in and commitment to Etsy's vision, mission and values.
