onsemi (Nasdaq: ON) is seeking an experienced Corporate Program Manager to lead the implementation of strategic initiatives across the organization. This is a leadership role responsible for managing complex, high-impact programs including acquisition integrations, divestitures, major system implementations, and business process improvements.
In this position, you will lead cross-functional teams and project managers across business and technical disciplines, often without direct authority. You will define and manage program requirements, acceptance criteria, scope changes, and stakeholder expectations throughout the program lifecycle. Key responsibilities include translating strategic objectives into executable plans with clear milestones, dependencies, critical paths, decision points, and accountable owners. You will own delivery of agreed business outcomes, scope, schedule, budget, resources, and benefits.
You will identify emerging risks and issues early, prioritize what matters, establish mitigation plans, and escalate with clear options and recommendations. The role requires making progress despite incomplete requirements, unclear ownership, changing priorities, or uncertain schedules by clarifying assumptions and creating practical paths forward. You will communicate concise, audience-appropriate updates on progress, risks, decisions, trade-offs, and required actions to executives, teams, and external stakeholders.
Additional responsibilities include working directly with non-onsemi acquisition targets and internal teams within applicable antitrust guidelines and integration governance. You will maintain disciplined program records, including charters, schedules, budgets, RAID and decision logs, action trackers, and executive status reports. You will also contribute to improving corporate project management processes, standards, tools, and operating practices based on program experience and lessons learned.
Key competencies include strong judgment and prioritization skills; ownership and accountability; communication instinct; influence without authority; comfort with ambiguity and composure under pressure; curiosity and learning agility; organizational instinct; and credibility and trustworthiness. You must demonstrate experience with mergers, acquisitions, integrations, divestitures, major systems, or enterprise process improvement. Proficiency in project and program planning, risk management, requirements management, scope management, change management, budget management, resource management, and benefits management is essential. Experience with waterfall, Agile, stage-gate, and hybrid delivery methodologies is required.
The company focuses on automotive and industrial end-markets, accelerating change in vehicle electrification and safety, sustainable energy grids, industrial automation, and 5G and cloud infrastructure.
REQUIREMENTS:

- 15 years of related work experience
