Senior Manager, Business Transformation
About this role
The Role: Apryse is seeking a Senior Manager, Business Transformation to lead complex, cross-functional transformation initiatives that drive meaningful business outcomes across the organization. This is not a traditional PMO role and not a technical Business Systems role. We are looking for a senior, hands-on transformation leader who can take a business problem once the direction and desired outcomes are aligned, and independently drive execution through completion.
This individual will own multiple high-impact programs simultaneously, create structure where it does not yet exist, connect business and technical workstreams, maintain a reliable source of truth, proactively surface risks and decisions, and keep initiatives moving forward with minimal oversight. Initially leading a small team, this is a true player-coach role that combines strategic thinking with hands-on execution.
Responsibilities: Lead complex, cross-functional transformation initiatives from problem definition through execution and adoption. Independently organize and drive workstreams, dependencies, decisions, risks, and stakeholder alignment in ambiguous environments. Establish program structures, governance models, operating cadences, and execution frameworks where none currently exist. Bridge business and technical teams to ensure alignment on priorities, requirements, dependencies, and outcomes.
Develop and maintain integrated project plans, milestones, RAID logs, decision logs, ownership matrices, and executive reporting. Facilitate working sessions, drive decision-making, and ensure accountability across multiple functional teams. Partner directly with senior leaders, VPs, and executive stakeholders to communicate progress, escalate risks, and resolve roadblocks. Support user acceptance testing, readiness planning, business enablement, and adoption activities to ensure successful implementation of change.
Personally contribute to project planning, documentation, analysis, stakeholder engagement, and execution activities as needed. Coach and mentor project management and business analysis team members, helping establish strong execution discipline and best practices. Collaborate with internal technical teams, vendors, and implementation partners to drive transformation outcomes. Requirements: 8+ years of experience leading complex business transformation, program management, operational excellence, or strategic initiatives.
