Head of Programs

Insight Global is looking for a Head of Programs. You will lead the team of mission managers who own our customer missions end-to-end, and you are accountable for delivering our satellite programs on cost, schedule, and scope. The mission TPMs run day-to-day delivery and report to the mission managers; the professional scheduling and configuration-management functions (the PMO, including the Master Scheduler) report to you. You lead the managers, set the standard, and own the portfolio as a whole. You will build the Programs function into a coherent function with strong mission managers, standard work, a portfolio cadence, and real program controls — the connective tissue between customer commitments, the engineering Centers of Excellence that supply talent, and the factory that builds the hardware

Bachelor's degree in engineering or a technical field, or equivalent experience

Experience leading and developing managers, not just individual contributors
Experience standing up or maturing a program-management function, PMO, or program-controls discipline
Strong command of program controls — work breakdown structures, scheduling, earned value or equivalent cost/schedule management, and risk management
Demonstrated success operating in a matrix or integrated-product-team organization

Satellite or spacecraft program leadership, ideally across the full lifecycle (design, build, commission, operate) and scaling toward constellation (rate) production.
Experience in high-mix, low-volume production environments scaling with a growing factory.
Both government and commercial program delivery experience.
Track record building a PMO, scheduling function, or portfolio-management cadence from the ground up
PMP or equivalent certification
