Who we are looking for

The Enterprise Resiliency Office (ERO) is seeking an experienced Program Manager to lead the establishment and ongoing execution of State Street's dependency mapping capabilities and governance. This role will direct a broad, cross-functional body of work designed to strengthen the accuracy, completeness, consistency, and effective use of dependency data supporting operational resilience, business continuity, recovery and resolution planning, risk management and other enterprise programs.

The successful candidate will serve as the central point of accountability for dependency mapping, establishing the governance framework and roadmap while driving improvements across dependency mapping processes, data, tooling, controls and usage. This position calls for a strategic leader with deep expertise in program management, data governance, process redesign and stakeholder engagement, with a demonstrated ability to drive change and build alignment across a complex organization.

Why this role is important to us

Dependency mapping provides the connective data needed to understand how business services and functions rely on applications, third parties, employees, locations and other resources. As the range of dependency types and internal use cases expands, effective governance is critical to ensuring the quality, consistency and usability of this data for impact assessments, resilience and continuity planning, risk assessments and regulatory reporting. With increasing regulatory scrutiny and enterprise reliance on dependency data, this role will provide the leadership and accountability needed to advance dependency mapping capabilities across the firm.

•Ensure controls over dependency mapping data, processes and tooling are appropriately designed, documented and operating effectively; oversee exception management, issue remediation and management reporting

•Partner with platform owners and technology teams to ensure supporting applications, workflows and reporting remain fit for purpose; define business requirements, prioritize enhancements and coordinate their testing and implementation

•Lead the expansion of dependency mapping to additional resource types, such as critical data, end-user computing tools and AI agents

•Identify and advance opportunities to apply automation and AI to improve efficiency and data quality

Stakeholder Engagement & Data Usage

•Govern the distribution and use of dependency data; engage existing data users to confirm the data meets their needs and coordinate with new users to identify use cases and integrate the data into their programs and processes

•Align dependency mapping with related enterprise capabilities and frameworks, including business service criticality assessments, business impact analysis, application tiering, third-party risk assessments and regulatory reporting

•Facilitate collaboration across stakeholders and teams involved in dependency mapping

•Coordinate responses to regulatory examinations, internal audits and risk reviews

Preferred Skills and Experience:

•A proven track record of leading complex, cross-functional programs, removing obstacles and driving initiatives through successful execution

•Demonstrated experience implementing new operating models, including redesigning processes, defining governance requirements, and driving sustained adoption across large organizations
