Position Title: Program Implementation Manager
Location: Remote / Hybrid Eligible, with travel as needed
Purpose Statement
The purpose of this position is to support the planning, coordination, implementation, and execution of high-volume graphic installation programs. This role is responsible for helping create structure around complex installation programs, coordinating installer and subcontractor resources, tracking progress, identifying risks, supporting quality standards, and helping ensure consistent execution across customers, internal teams, external partners, and field resources.
This position is intended to support high-volume and high-revenue opportunities that require dedicated installation coordination, process discipline, reporting, site readiness, field communication, and cross-functional alignment.
Position Overview

Graphic Installation Program Management
• Program Coordination: Plan, coordinate, and manage assigned graphic installation programs from launch through ongoing execution. Ensure timelines, deliverables, responsibilities, and follow-up actions are clearly defined and tracked.
• Installation Labor Planning: Support planning for installer coverage, subcontractor capacity, travel crews, internal labor, site leads, quality inspectors, scheduling, and other resources required to execute assigned programs.
• Installer & Subcontractor Coordination: Assist with communication, vetting, onboarding, scheduling, follow-up, and performance tracking for installation partners, subcontractors, field crews, and other program resources as needed.

• Process & SOP Implementation: Help develop, document, and implement installation processes as programs grow or change. This may include site readiness, vehicle readiness, kit handling, installation workflow, QA, rework, reporting, and escalation processes.
• Issue Resolution & Escalation: Identify issues early, gather necessary information, coordinate next steps, and escalate concerns when needed. Follow through until issues are resolved or properly assigned.
• Cross-Functional Coordination: Coordinate with internal departments as needed to support installation execution, customer requirements, material readiness, documentation, reporting, and handoffs.
• Customer Communication: Support clear, timely, and professional communication with customers as assigned. Help ensure updates, expectations, risks, and follow-up items are communicated appropriately.
