GTM Program Manager - 6-Month Contract
Jira & Atlassian Project Management Build-Out
Engagement type: Fixed-term contract
Engagement Overview
The client is engaging a hands-on GTM Program Manager on a six-month contract to architect and operationalize a project management system in Jira, together with project reporting dashboards in Atlassian. The goal is full transparency and accountability into the client's product GTM plans and launch status.
This is a build-and-enable engagement. By the end of the term, the GTM team will have a live, well-documented project management system, the dashboards to run it, and the training and SOPs to sustain it.
Objective
Stand up a single, reliable source of truth for GTM and product launch execution, so anyone from an individual contributor to an executive can see plan status, milestones, risks, and project health in real time.
Key Deliverables
1. Jira Project Environment Architecture
- Architect: Design and build the Jira project environment for GTM and product launch work, sized to support multiple concurrent launches.
- Standardize: Establish naming conventions, hierarchy, and standards that keep the system consistent and scalable.
2. Atlassian Reporting Dashboards
- Build: Build Atlassian dashboards that surface key milestone views and project health at a glance.
- Tailor by audience: Deliver executive roll-ups (portfolio status, launch readiness, risk) and team-level operational views (workload, blockers, upcoming milestones).
3. Project Management Guide / SOP
- Document: Author a clear project management guide and SOPs covering how the system works, how to run a launch in it, and team conventions.
- Make it usable: Keep it practical and self-serve, covering intake, planning, status updates, reporting cadence, and roles and responsibilities.
4. GTM Team Enablement & Training
- Train: Train the GTM team through live sessions and supporting materials so they can operate the system confidently and independently.
- Drive adoption: Drive adoption, not just awareness, and leave behind reference materials for ongoing onboarding.
5. Project Documentation
- Populate: Guide or directly complete documentation of each active GTM and launch project, ensuring plans, milestones, owners, and status are accurately captured.
- Migrate in-flight work: Bring existing projects into the system so it reflects the real state of the portfolio from day one.
6. Ad Hoc Project Management
- Day-to-day project management: Manage key projects, build or support project plan hygiene for select initiatives, flag risk, schedule meetings, and communicate with stakeholders to drive on-time delivery.
Responsibilities
- Run the engagement as a project: scope, plan, sequence, and deliver the six workstreams on time and to a defined quality bar.
- Partner with Product Marketing, Product Management, Sales, Customer Success, and Enablement to reflect how launches actually run in the system design.
- Validate the system with real projects and iterate on team feedback before handoff.
- Ensure a clean handoff of system, dashboards, SOPs, and trained owners so the client can sustain it after the contract ends.
Qualifications
- Demonstrated experience standing up or significantly re-architecting a Jira environment from the ground up, ideally for GTM, marketing, or product launch work.
- Expert-level Jira configuration (projects, workflows, custom fields, JQL, automation); Atlassian administration experience strongly preferred.
- Proven ability to build Atlassian dashboards and reporting that turn project data into decision-ready views.
- Strong program/project management background with a track record of delivering on fixed timelines.
- Experience writing SOPs or playbooks and training teams to adopt new tools and processes.
- Clear communicator who can work across ICs and executives and bring structure to ambiguity.
- Comfortable operating as a contractor: self-directed, fast to ramp, and focused on leaving the team self-sufficient.
Nice to Have
- Atlassian depth: Confluence, Atlassian Analytics, Jira Product Discovery, or Jira Align experience.
- Domain: background in B2B SaaS, data, or regulated / EHS-adjacent industries.
- Certifications: PMP, Agile / Scrum, or Atlassian certifications.
Definition of Success
At the end of six months, the client has a live Jira project management system and Atlassian dashboards in active use, a documented SOP, a trained GTM team operating the system independently, and every active GTM and launch project documented within it.
