Program Manager, Business and Data
About the Role
The Program Manager, Business & Data is a critical role responsible for structuring ambiguous business problems, building the model, and driving the analysis to a clear, defensible number.

This role sits inside Billtrust’s Strategy Office as it scales to support a growing portfolio of Strategic Programs Programs and AI initiatives. You’ll partner across Billtrust’s Customer org, Go-to-Market, Finance, and Operations to structure problems, build models, and turn data into decisions. This is a build-from-scratch environment: the Strategy Office is standing up execution capacity, and the person in this seat will help define how business analysis gets run here. This role is based in Nashville, TN, working onsite from our Gulch office. Priorities in this seat shift with the portfolio — you'll be deployed against whatever is most urgent, and you'll be expected to move fast when it changes.

Leverage AI co-work agents to draft analysis summaries and model documentation, freeing time for higher-judgment work.
Program Execution
