Finance Transformation & Integration Program Manager

Why We Have This Role

How You’ll Find Success

• Exceptional program management discipline - You break complex, multi-stakeholder initiatives into clear milestones, manage dependencies across teams, communicate with precision, and drive execution when ambiguity is high. You're known for keeping things on track without creating bureaucracy.
• Strategic problem-solving at multiple altitudes - You move fluently between high-level strategy (understanding what needs to change and why) and tactical execution (what needs to happen this week). You can synthesize input from disparate teams and find the path forward.
• Deep integration and M&A experience - You've led or closely supported major integrations before. You understand what it takes to combine systems, people, and processes. You know where integration efforts typically stumble, and you proactively prevent those failures.
• Cross-functional influence and partnership - You don't have direct authority over most of the people you need to move, so you lead through clarity, trust, and relationship. You're comfortable pushing back on leadership and making the hard case for what's right for the business.
• Financial acumen and business literacy - You understand financial planning, forecasting, and operations deeply enough to have informed opinions, ask the right questions, and partner effectively with finance and executive leaders. You can translate between finance and product/engineering languages.
• Adaptability and comfort with ambiguity - You thrive in environments where requirements shift, new information emerges, and "perfect clarity" never arrives. You can pivot without losing momentum and help your team do the same.
• Attention to detail paired with big-picture thinking - You know that transformational change lives in the details, but you never lose sight of the strategic outcome you're driving toward.

How You’ll Grow

• Integration and M&A expertise deepened - You'll lead the company's most significant integration initiative, building an expertise in post-acquisition operational consolidation and value realization that makes you invaluable to PE-backed growth strategy.
• Executive visibility and influence - You'll work directly with senior Finance and cross-functional leaders on initiatives that move the needle for the company. This visibility creates opportunities to shape strategy and advance into leadership roles across the organization.
• Scale organizational capabilities and operating rhythms - As you drive these transformations, you'll build the organizational muscle and operating cadence that enable Qualtrics to scale efficiently. You'll design the processes, governance, and communication patterns that allow the company to execute complex change at speed.
• Cross-functional business fluency - You'll deepen your understanding of how Qualtrics' product, engineering, sales, and marketing organizations work. This breadth of experience opens pathways into broader operational or business strategy roles.

Things You’ll Do

• Drive operational efficiency initiatives that improve margins and scalability - Own the end-to-end execution of finance operations transformation: streamlining financial planning and forecasting processes, operationalizing key performance metrics, and eliminating inefficiencies across the financial close and reporting cycle. Define success criteria, manage timelines and dependencies, remove blockers, and ensure adoption across the organization. The impact: Qualtrics' finance operations are more efficient, predictable, and scalable, freeing resources for growth. The work: project planning, stakeholder management, change enablement, and relentless follow-through.
• Lead post-acquisition integration planning and execution - Once regulatory approval is secured, you will own the program management for integrating our new acquisition from a finance perspective. This includes finance systems integration, process harmonization, team structuring, etc. The impact: we successfully combine two organizations into one cohesive operating model. The work: detailed integration planning, dependency management across product, engineering, and go-to-market, risk mitigation, and ensuring a smooth transition for customers and employees.
• Orchestrate cross-functional collaboration at scale - You'll convene leaders across Finance, People, Product, Engineering, Sales, and Marketing to align on priorities, resolve conflicts, and drive decisions forward. The impact: strategic initiatives move at the speed of the entire business, not just Finance. The work: meeting facilitation, clear communication, issue escalation, and building the case for alignment.
• Build organizational capability for operational excellence - As you execute these initiatives, you'll identify gaps in process, tooling, or capability and recommend improvements. The impact: Qualtrics gets better at managing complex change. The work: process documentation, recommendations for tools and systems, and change enablement approaches that can be repeated.

What We’re Looking For On Your Resume

• 7-10 years of program or project management at a senior level - You've owned complex, multi-stakeholder operational initiatives where you were accountable for outcomes across teams you didn't directly manage.
• Track record of driving operational efficiency and scaling initiatives - You've successfully led or deeply supported transformations focused on reducing costs, improving efficiency, or enabling faster scaling. You can point to specific examples where your work improved operational metrics or margins.
• 2+ years of direct experience leading or deeply supporting a major integration, acquisition, or merger - You've been in the room where two organizations came together, understood integration value realization, and can apply those lessons here. This is critical to the role.
• Demonstrated success in SaaS, technology, or private equity-backed environments - You understand how growth companies operate and the operational discipline required to scale profitably. Bonus: you've worked in a PE-backed environment and understand the focus on operational leverage and efficiency.
• Proven ability to influence and lead without direct authority - References from peers, cross-functional collaborators, and leaders will confirm that you bring people together and drive outcomes even when you don't have formal authority.
• Financial literacy and fluency with financial planning and operational metrics - You understand budgeting, forecasting, operational KPIs, and financial metrics at a depth that lets you have informed conversations with finance leaders and executives.
