Join arenaflex: Lead Transformative Customer Service Programs That Shape the Future of Customer Experience
arenaflex is redefining what it means to deliver world-class customer service at scale. As a global leader committed to operational excellence and customer obsession, we are searching for a visionary Senior Program Manager, Consumer Customer Service Support Strategy & Cross-Functional Program Delivery to join our dynamic Program Delivery Group. This is not just a program management role—it is an opportunity to architect the future of how millions of customers experience support, and how thousands of customer service associates deliver that experience every single day.
If you are a strategic thinker, a master negotiator, and a program leader who thrives in fast-paced, complex environments, this role offers the platform to drive meaningful change. You will partner with global, cross-functional business teams and customer service operations to deliver projects that fundamentally improve both the customer journey and the associate experience. At arenaflex, your work will directly influence how we serve our customers, empower our teams, and continue to set the gold standard in customer service excellence.
About the Role
As a Senior Program Manager within our Consumer Customer Service Support (C2S2) Program Delivery team, you will operate at the intersection of strategy, execution, and stakeholder influence. You will own the vision, roadmap, and end-to-end delivery of high-impact programs, ensuring alignment across multiple business units, technical teams, and operational leaders. Your ability to translate complex business requirements into executable project plans, while maintaining a relentless focus on quality and customer outcomes, will be the cornerstone of your success.
This role demands more than traditional project management—it requires you to be a thought leader who can advocate for the customer, drive data-informed decisions, and inspire cross-functional teams toward shared goals. You will define program strategy, negotiate priorities, manage risks proactively, and serve as the trusted advisor to senior leadership on all matters related to program execution and customer experience transformation.
Key Responsibilities
- Strategic Program Leadership: Define the overarching strategy and direction for complex, multi-stakeholder programs, securing consensus and clear alignment at all organizational levels—from working teams to executive leadership.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with diverse teams including Customer Service Operations, Quality Assurance, Customer Experience, Capacity Planning, and multiple technical organizations to design standard operating procedures, optimize processes, and define technical requirements.
- Project Prioritization & Planning: Identify, prioritize, and plan the portfolio of projects required to execute on strategic process improvements and technical requirements, ensuring resources are aligned to the highest-impact initiatives.
- Resource & Team Management: Schedule, secure, and coordinate cross-functional teams and third-party contributors to deliver projects on time, within scope, and to the highest quality standards.
- Execution & Quality Assurance: Monitor project execution rigorously, ensuring delivery meets agreed-upon quality benchmarks while maintaining the overall integrity of the program and its objectives.
- Risk Management & Issue Resolution: Proactively anticipate risks, identify potential roadblocks, resolve issues decisively, and initiate corrective action to keep programs on track.
- Dependency & Interface Management: Manage complex dependencies and interfaces between projects, negotiating trade-offs and ensuring seamless integration across the program portfolio.
- Stakeholder Communication & Reporting: Provide comprehensive stakeholder management and regular project progress reporting to leadership, using clear, compelling written and verbal communication to achieve buy-in and maintain transparency.
- Third-Party Oversight: Where applicable, manage and oversee third-party vendor contributions to ensure alignment with program goals, timelines, and quality expectations.
A Day in the Life
No two days are the same at arenaflex. You might start your morning reviewing program dashboards and KPIs, identifying trends and flagging risks to leadership before they become issues. By mid-morning, you could be leading a cross-functional alignment meeting with operations, quality, and technical teams to resolve competing priorities. After lunch, you might be deep in a strategy session, mapping out the next quarter's roadmap or negotiating resource allocation with senior partners. Throughout the day, you'll be writing executive updates, facilitating working sessions, and serving as the connective tissue between teams that need to move in unison to deliver exceptional customer experiences.
You will thrive here if you are energized by complexity, motivated by impact, and skilled at bringing clarity to ambiguity. This is a role for someone who wants to see their strategic vision translated into tangible outcomes that touch millions of customers and thousands of associates worldwide.
