Position Summary:
The Commercial Program Manager is an individual contributor responsible for translating commercial strategy into coordinated execution across cross-functional teams, including Revenue Management, Trade/Agency Sales, Contact Center, eCommerce/Product, CRM & Lifecycle, Performance Marketing, Brand/Content, Partnerships, IT/Enterprise Technology, Data/Analytics, Finance, Legal/Compliance, and Onboard Revenue.
This role plans, coordinates, and drives the operating rhythm for commercial initiatives—such as tactical promotions, segment and market pushes, merchandising changes, lifecycle programs, pricing and yield experiments, partner activations, and technology rollouts. The Program Manager brings structure, clarity, and cadence to complex initiatives, ensuring clear ownership, disciplined execution, and measurable outcomes.
You will own intake and prioritization processes, clarify decision ownership, orchestrate cross-functional delivery plans in Asana, produce executive-ready updates, and facilitate postmortems that improve future cycles. Success is defined by faster time to market, fewer bottlenecks, clear capacity visibility, and sustained improvement in commercial performance metrics (e.g., conversion, NTR, load factor, APD/APCDs, retention), alongside a higher standard for how initiatives are planned, launched, and evaluated.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities:
What You’ll Own & Deliver
1) Portfolio Intake, Prioritization & Roadmap
Maintain a rolling 12–18 month portfolio of commercial initiatives with documented business cases, impact/effort assessments, dependencies, and accountable owners.
Run structured intake and triage: standardize briefs, scope, and assumptions; surface tradeoffs and sequencing recommendations for leadership review.
Define decision owners versus contributors (RACI) per initiative; document decisions clearly in a searchable system of record.
2) Program Delivery & Governance
Own the weekly and quarterly operating cadence across partner teams, including Asana plans, milestone tracking, RAID logs (Risks, Assumptions, Issues, Dependencies), and KPI/OKR alignment.
Coordinate cross-functional execution by aligning timelines, handoffs, and cutover plans; escalate issues with clear options and decision asks.
Produce concise, decision-grade updates (one-pagers, dashboards) for senior stakeholders.
3) Capacity, Bottlenecks & Visibility
Provide portfolio-level visibility into what is in flight, ownership, and delivery risk.
Monitor interdependencies and resource constraints; recommend sequencing, staffing, or scope adjustments to maintain momentum.
Track benefits realization against baseline assumptions and maintain a living benefits ledger per initiative.
4) Process Establishment & Continuous
