Mission and role

Sidetrade is launching a brand-new, high-impact engineering initiative to deploy internal autonomous agents across the organisation. These agents will automate high-volume workflows and fundamentally change how teams operate across every business function, including Customer Success, Finance, Product, Professional Services, Marketing, Communications, Sales, and Operations.

What you\'ll be doing


Responsibilities

* Own the internal autonomous agents program: roadmap, scope, and delivery of all internal agent initiatives across departments.
* Structure the program into clear projects with timelines, milestones, dependencies, and success metrics.
* Ensure consistent delivery standards across multiple agent use cases.
* Partner with business leaders to define high-impact use cases and translate business needs into clear problem statements, priorities, and success criteria.
* Lead delivery with AI Engineers: manage and coordinate a team of AI Engineers building internal agents; define priorities and unblock execution; act as the interface between technical teams and non-technical stakeholders.
* Define KPIs and ROI expectations for each agent initiative; track delivery progress, adoption, and operational impact; drive change management to ensure adoption.
* Coordinate cross-functionally with Engineering, IT, Security, Data, and Ops; anticipate risks related to data access, tooling, dependencies, or timelines; ensure clear communication and decision-making across teams.
* Establish standards and governance: document, prioritise, review, and validate agent projects; provide leadership visibility on progress, risks, and outcomes.


What you\'ll need to be successful

Core Skills (Must-Have)

* Proven experience in program management, product ownership, or PMO roles delivering complex technical initiatives.
* Strong background working with engineering teams on AI, data, or software products.
* Experience delivering projects in a B2B SaaS, tech, or AI-driven environment.
* Ability to manage multiple parallel initiatives with different stakeholders and priorities.
* Strong execution mindset: planning, prioritisation, delivery tracking, and risk management.
* Comfort working with technical concepts (AI, automation, APIs, systems) without needing to code.
* Excellent communication skills with both technical and business audiences.

Nice to Have

* Experience managing AI, automation, or data-driven initiatives.
* Background in internal tools, productivity platforms, or operational transformation.
* Exposure to agentic AI, workflow automation, or applied AI projects.
* Experience working in fast-paced, scaling organisations.
* Familiarity with Agile, hybrid delivery models, or product-led delivery.

At Sidetrade, we cultivate a multicultural environment that fuels innovation. With over 22 nationalities represented, we strongly value diversity, gender equality, inclusivity, and fairness. As an equal opportunity employer, we reject all forms of discrimination and harassment. Your unique contributions are celebrated, driving collective success in our inclusive workplace.
