What You'll Do

We're looking for a PM to own successful outcomes within Epic's early career program. As a PM focused on intern success, you'll be an adviser to both interns and the business, ensuring seamless participation and conversion outcomes year-to-year. Partnering with multiple lines of business, you'll ensure long-term engagement and retention strategies within the early career program, which lead to successful conversion outcomes, including intern goal tracking, performance management and the conversion process, and lead and mentor training and development. You'll also play a key factor in building a new model of apprenticeship with a Sr. PM, with the goal of expanding Epic's strategic talent pipeline.

In This Role You Will

• Explore and develop viable models for apprenticeship across strategic Epic teams
• Build and maintain trust with key stakeholders within the business and the intern cohorts
• Provide guidance to leads and mentors on setting SMART goals that directly tie into successful conversion pathways
• Work with interns to track individual goals and outcomes, and act as partner to the leads/mentors to bridge skills gaps along the way
• Manage situational escalations during the internship, knowing when to intervene or change course
• Own performance management process for the early career program, which includes the intern to full-time conversion cycles
• Ensure business alignment on junior core competencies during conversion, so that talent meets Epic’s bar for success
• Facilitate key trainings for each cohort, including general program preparations and inclusive leadership practices
• Help leads cultivate inclusive teams which enable Epic interns to succeed and thrive

What We're Looking For

• Prior experience working as an HR partner or a PM within academic programs, L&D, or early career initiatives
• Experience with apprenticeships, bridging secondary education to post-secondary opportunities preferred
• Excellent stakeholder management, experience supporting multiple client groups
• A passion and comfort for cultivating early career talent and helping bridge skills gaps across multiple disciplines
• Proven ability to drive process initiatives, proactively solve problems, and be a force multiplier for the team
• Experience and desire for cultivating inclusive teams, being a strong advocate for diversity and inclusion
• Strong situational judgement and a high degree of emotional intelligence
• Strong written and verbal business communication skills
• Comfort with ambiguity, and knowing what to do when there isn’t a clear path forward
• Demonstrated experience facilitating presentations, ideally training content
