About the job
A problem isn't truly solved until it's solved for all. That's why Googlers build products that help create opportunities for everyone, whether down the street or across the globe. As a Program Manager at Google, you'll lead complex, multi-disciplinary projects from start to finish - working with stakeholders to plan requirements, manage project schedules, identify risks, and communicate clearly with cross-functional partners across the company. Your projects will often span offices, time zones, and hemispheres. It's your job to coordinate the players and keep them up to date on progress and deadlines.
In this role, you will be a pivotal leader within the Construction Project Controls (CPC) organization. You will be responsible for the commercial strategy, sourcing, and programmatic discussion for both General Contractors (GCs) and Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) trade partners across Google's Global Data Center portfolio.
You will lead a structural shift from project-by-project bidding to a program-level framework with a foundation of consistent pricing methodology. You will drive value and certainty by streamlining procurement to accelerate delivery, and ensuring commercial excellence through the entire project life-cycle.

Draft and finalize pricing methods for Master Service Agreements (MSAs) and Framework Agreements, ensuring pre-negotiated commercials flow through to project-specific agreements.
Partner with Design, Construction, Legal, Finance, and the Global Procurement Organization (GPO) to align trade partner assignments with demand forecasts and design standards.
