    About Us

    One team. Global challenges. Infinite opportunities. At Viasat, we're on a mission to deliver connections with the capacity to change the world. For more than 35 years, Viasat has helped shape how consumers, businesses, governments and militaries around the globe communicate. We're looking for people who think big, act fearlessly, and create an inclusive environment that drives positive impact to join our team.

    Viasat has recently approved a number of new initiatives that significantly change the products and services that our customers will use. Some of these initiatives could change the way that people live and communicate with each other in a ground-breaking way.

    Job Description

    What you'll Do

    We are looking to build on an already existing project and programme delivery team to increase the capability and capacity of the team. A team of people who think and act differently, we look to this as our strength and look to create a culture around this. We are not looking for superheroes or big egos, but people who can take a concept or idea and conduct a team of people to deliver the unknown with a quiet confidence.

    Reporting to the Director, Product Delivery and Programme Management, the Programme Manager is an important and strategic role that will deliver some of Viasat's new product initiatives and the projects and programmes required to support these. In this role, you will work on a wide range of Projects and be assigned your own complex, multi-disciplinary programme. You will work with stakeholders to plan outcomes, requirements, manage project schedules, identify risks, and communicate clearly with cross-functional partners across the company.

    You and your team will span offices and time zones so you will need to be able to coordinate accordingly and keep everyone up to date on progress and deadlines.

    In addition to your Programme Manager role you can expect to be involved in the Product Delivery Management team, taking oversight for a related section of the portfolio, and working with stakeholders to understand trade-offs, ensure quality of delivery, and track that projects are delivering against their outcomes.

    Finally, your role will involve the management of Project Management team members who are delivering projects within your portfolio. Giving them support, direction and coaching to ensure world class project delivery.

    The day-to-day

    • Lead the planning and execution of assigned programme and/or projects
    • Ensure programme and/or projects deliver business case outcomes
    • Line management of people – Project Managers and others
    • Manage project resource allocations (including requests for additional Project Management support) in line with the Offer Roadmap, small change and development pipeline
    • Ensure programme and/or projects are delivered within scope, schedule, and budget through collaborating with a cross functional matrix of teams
    • Ensure mechanisms are in place for the definition and tracking of all programme activities
    • Hold members of the cross functional team to account for their deliverables and own the resolution of project deliverables which are off track including management against agreed recovery / mitigation plans
    • Ensure the team are supported in the delivery of assigned projects
    • Manage and encourage new ideas from colleagues to foster improvements through innovation

    Qualifications

    What you'll Need

    • The ability to hold two opposing ideas and still be able to function.
    • Recognise that it is about the team achieving the goal and not about yourself
    • The resilience to maintain a stable drive and demonstrate calmness in the chaos.
    • Project/Programme Management Professional with knowledge of project methods (e.g., PRINCE2, PMP, MSP, Six Sigma) and Agile delivery methodologies (e.g., Agile PM, Scrum SAFe, DSDM)
    • Experience with the product development lifecycle
    • Strong delivery skills including accurate project planning, delivering to milestone dates, managing resources effectively, and communicating status effectively
    • Advanced problem-solving experience involving leading teams in identifying, researching, and coordinating the resources necessary to effectively troubleshoot and diagnose complex project issues; translating findings into alternatives and solutions; and identifying risks and impacts and schedule adjustments to facilitate leaders' decision-making
    • Ability to bridge the gap between technical and non-technical stakeholders
    • Ability to work globally with and influence stakeholders in a complex organisation
    • Strong delegation skills involving prioritising and reprioritising projects and oversight of projects of various size and complexity.
    • Create and maintain an environment that energises people to achieve high levels of performance and encourages people to learn from experiences
