The Opportunity
The AI Governance Program Manager owns the day‑to‑day operation of the enterprise AI governance program, ensuring AI initiatives are governed consistently, transparently, and in alignment with enterprise guardrails, risk management expectations, and policy requirements. This role translates responsible AI principles, risk guidance, and governance standards into executable processes, documentation requirements, and checkpoints that scale with AI adoption.
The role works closely with Enterprise Data & AI leadership, Legal, Risk, Compliance, Privacy, and business stakeholders to ensure governance expectations are clearly understood, proportionate to risk, and applied consistently across AI initiatives. The AI Governance Program Manager enables responsible AI adoption by providing structure, visibility, and coordination without personally serving as a policy‑setting, risk‑acceptance, or technical review authority.
