The Enterprise Project Management Office (PMO) plays a critical role in enabling Attain's strategy by driving disciplined execution, cross-functional alignment, and operational excellence across the enterprise.

This role blends enterprise PMO governance discipline with hands-on delivery leadership. The Program / Project Manager is a "hybrid operator" role. This is someone who can enforce structure and governance at an enterprise level while still rolling up their sleeves to lead delivery. This person will be responsible for both leading projects as well as ensuring alignment with enterprise standards, governance, and strategic objectives. The role requires both structured oversight (portfolio reporting, controls, and compliance) and pragmatic execution (planning, delivery, stakeholder management).
