About Chemify Chemify is revolutionising chemistry. We are creating a future where the synthesis of previously unimaginable molecules, drugs, and materials is instantly accessible. By combining AI, robotics, and the world’s largest continually expanding database of chemical programs, we are accelerating chemical discovery to improve quality of life and extend the reach of humanity. Job Description We are seeking an experienced Program Manager to join Chemify at a critical stage of growth. This is a high-impact role working closely with the Executive Leadership Team to translate strategic priorities into well-defined, executable programmes across the company. You will own and deliver a portfolio of company-wide and operationally focused initiatives, many of which originate directly from the executive board. These programmes will span operational efficiency, platform development, cross-functional process improvement, and scaling the business. You’ll operate as the central orchestration point for complex, multi-disciplinary delivery across software, hardware, operations, and chemistry teams. While this role does not require scientific or chemistry expertise, it does require a highly capable Program or Senior Project Manager who is comfortable working at executive level, driving clarity, accountability, and momentum in fast-paced, ambiguous environments. If you thrive on bringing structure to complexity, enjoy working across diverse teams, and are motivated by helping ambitious organisations execute strategy at scale, we’d love to hear from you. Key Responsibilities Own and deliver a portfolio of executive-sponsored programmes, translating strategic objectives into clear scopes, plans, milestones, and outcomes. Lead complex, cross-functional initiatives spanning Operations, Platform (Software & Hardware), Engineering, and Process. Act as the primary coordination point between executives, programme teams, and delivery owners, ensuring alignment and accountability. Drive programmes focused on improving operational efficiency, throughput, reliability, and scalability. Partner closely with Software and Hardware teams to enable platform development, coordinating roadmaps, timelines, and dependencies. Establish and maintain appropriate programme governance, delivery cadence, and reporting structures. Identify, manage, and mitigate risks, dependencies, and bottlenecks that could impact delivery. Manage organisational change associated with large programmes, ensuring teams are prepared and aligned. Provide clear, concise updates on progress, risks, decisions required, and outcomes to senior stakeholders. Continuously improve programme and project delivery standards, contributing to the evolution of PMO processes, tools, and best practices. Lead by influence rather than authority, fostering a culture of transparency, ownership, and execution excellence. What you’ll bring Extensive experience as a Program Manager or Senior Project Manager delivering complex, cross-functional programmes. Proven experience working directly with executive leadership and senior stakeholders. Strong background in operationally focused initiatives and company-wide change programmes. Demonstrated ability to manage programmes involving both software and hardware teams. Excellent planning, organisational, and risk management skills. Comfort operating in high-growth, startup or scale-up environments with ambiguity and pace. Exceptional written and verbal communication skills (English fluency). A pragmatic, outcomes-focused mindset with the ability to balance speed and rigour. Calm, credible, and confident when engaging at executive level. Beneficial Skills Experience establishing or operating within a PMO environment. Strong understanding of delivery governance, prioritisation, and dependency management. Experience driving operational efficiency or transformation programmes. Familiarity with Agile, hybrid, or waterfall delivery models. Data-driven approach, using metrics to inform decisions and measure impact. Experience working in deep-tech, platform, or highly technical organisations.
