Program Manager, Global Technical Services
About the role
Your opportunity
The Global Technical Services organization is looking for a Program Manager who can be a leader in the self-service space. In this role, you will drive the strategy and execution for New Relic’s customer-facing support platforms, operating at the intersection of technical program delivery and product management. The program's scope includes the Platform Help Experience, Community Forum, and Knowledge Base—platforms built on New Relic technology and Salesforce Experience Cloud, with integrations into Atlassian Confluence.
Reporting to the Director of Enterprise Systems and Solutions, you will develop the program strategy and deliver high-value, customer-centric outcomes through continuous, data-driven improvements. Working closely with the team's Engineering Managers and partnering with key stakeholders across the company (including Security, Legal, Compliance, Product Language, Enablement, and Marketing), you will oversee project lifecycles from initial discovery through launch and beyond. This requires strong change management expertise to ensure consistent alignment among cross-functional partners at every stage.
Ultimately, you will manage the evolution of our self-service customer journeys, the unification of our various customer-facing support platforms, and the implementation of AI-driven workflows. If you possess the necessary skills and are eager to take on these challenges, we encourage you to apply!
