Position Overview

We are looking for an enthusiastic individual contributor to drive and manage several high-profile global Autodesk channel programs, transforming strategy into scalable execution. Reporting to the Director, Global Channel Programs & Incentives, you will partner with cross-functional leaders and regional teams to design, implement, and continuously evolve programs that improve partner experiences, streamline operations, and deliver measurable business outcomes.

As the key connection between strategy and execution, you will collaborate with and influence stakeholders across multiple functions, translating program concepts into scalable global solutions by determining the most effective implementation approach and supporting regions through rollout and ongoing program management.

  • Influence stakeholders across functions, geographies, and organizational levels to drive alignment, collaboration, and successful program outcomes

  • Monitor program performance, evaluate effectiveness, and identify opportunities to simplify, refine, and continuously improve programs and business processes

  • Lead program design and implementation by developing rollout plans, supporting annual program updates, planning regional deployment, and managing in-year program enhancements

  • Develop and maintain program governance, approval processes, executive presentations, communications, training materials, documentation, rollout guides, and contractual updates

  • Apply formal project management and governance practices to ensure timelines are met and high-impact global initiatives are successfully delivered

  • Serve as an individual contributor while acting as a collaborative program leader who connects teams, stakeholders, and processes across the organization

  • Facilitate and participate in worldwide meetings across multiple time zones, including occasional early morning or evening calls, to drive alignment, decision-making, and execution

  • Excellent written, verbal, presentation, and executive communication skills

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a focus on process improvement and continuous optimization

  • Ability to understand end-to-end business impacts, including operational, financial, legal, systems, and regional considerations

  • Experience developing executive presentations, program documentation, communications, and training materials

  • Ability to work independently, prioritize competing initiatives, and thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment

  • Strategic and creative thinker who is comfortable challenging ideas, driving innovation, and improving program effectiveness

  • Advanced proficiency with Microsoft PowerPoint, Excel, Word, Airtable, Teams, Zoom, and other collaboration tools

  • BA/BS degree
