Manager, Program Management

Position Summary...

What you'll do...

The Program Content Manager operates at the center of strategy and execution for one of the most forward-looking initiatives in retail: Drone Delivery. This is not a “make slides” role. This is a narrative ownership role. You will architect the story of the Drone Program — ensuring leaders, partners, and cross-functional teams clearly understand where we’re going, why it matters, and how we win. You’ll transform complexity into alignment, protect message integrity across a fast-moving matrix organization, and elevate how the program shows up at every level — from working teams to executive forums. If you thrive in high-visibility environments where clarity is currency and precision matters, this role is built for you. The role is based in Bentonville, AR and reports to the Senior Program Manager. You’ll sweep us off our feet if…

• Consistently turn complexity into clarity without losing nuance
• Possess high emotional intelligence and sharp organizational awareness
• Know how to influence without authority and manage upward with confidence
• Can operate in ambiguity without waiting for perfect inputs

• Bring strong visual storytelling instincts and design fluency
• Balance strategic thinking with operational execution
