Job Description

Position Summary:

The Director, Large Program Execution functions as the top-level orchestrator of complex, multi-region customer programs - ensuring all Business Units (Power, IS, Thermal, etc.), engineering, material and capacity planning, procurement, manufacturing, and field execution operate in sync to deliver quality products and services on time, at committed quantities, and within scope. They lead the end-to-end program across all Vertiv functions, turning strategy into integrated execution, closely managing execution risk, keeping senior internal and customer stakeholders informed.

This dynamic and customer-facing position demands exceptional leadership, communication, team building, organizational and presentation skills, as well as a deep understanding of Vertiv products, services, end-to-end order-to-fulfillment processes and field project execution. You will have responsibility for leading and directing the Large Project execution teams for assigned account(s). This role offers the opportunity to deliver significant impact by overseeing large programs from PO receipt through site turnover, working cross-functionally across Vertiv to provide superior customer service.

This role will also provide weekly/monthly reporting on account execution performance and key performance indicators to senior Vertiv stakeholders to ensure we are meeting organizational goals.

Responsibilities:

Execution & Control:


* Master of the Program Gantt linking engineering release, material readiness, and factory capacity.
* Facilitate weekly program control tower reviews with Delivery Assurance Managers and BU Delivery Assurance Leads - highlight slippages, risk recovery, and escalation paths.
* Drive alignment and action-driven results to ensure ordered items are configurable in ERP on purchase order.
* Approve schedule recovery and pull-ahead plans, balancing priorities among overlapping customer commitments. Coordinate with logistics and order management to align ship mode (sea/air) with delivery risk and customer penalties.
* Partner with Finance to track revenue risk, late fees/LD exposure, inventory builds, and margin leakage across the program.
* Review and challenge logistics and PPV cost drivers.
* Ensure execution aligns with customer-specific Factory Witness Tests (FWT) and technical requirements.

Cross Functional Integration:


* Ensure all workstreams (engineering, procurement, operations, quality, logistics) are connected and executing against the same signal.
* Act as the single escalation point for inter-factory or cross-BU dependencies (e.g., shared supplier or subassembly bottlenecks).
* Partner with Procurement to track critical path material readiness, ensuring long-lead parts are ordered and expedited per build priority.
* Oversee BOM maturity tracking to prevent build stalls from late ETOs or ECO revisions. Integrate factory witness test schedules into the master plan to maintain shipment sequencing.
* Drive alignment between factory quality, field service, and on-site commissioning schedules.

Stakeholder Communication & Leadership:


* Chair bi-weekly executive program reviews summarizing delivery status, risks, and mitigation.
* Communicate consolidated delivery forecasts for senior leadership and customer stakeholders.
* Ensure consistent flow-down of priorities from customer requirements to site-level build plans. Serve as customer-facing escalation point for schedule recovery and delivery confidence updates.

Program Governance


* Lead the cadence: program control tower, recovery standups, E-to-E readiness reviews, FAT planning, QBR/MBR.
* Standardize communication templates for Red Line Reports, RAIL logs, BOM
