About the role

We are looking for an experienced program manager to join Binance's Legal team in a PMO capacity. The Legal function sits at the centre of a fast-moving global business, and much of its most important work is cross-functional - it depends on aligning legal, compliance, risk, finance, technology and business teams against hard external deadlines. This role exists to make that delivery happen: owning the plan, driving the workstreams, and keeping senior stakeholders informed and unblocked.

This is not a legal advisory role. You will work alongside lawyers rather than as one, and you'll be expected to operate autonomously on matters that are confidential and business-critical.

What you'll do

• Own end-to-end delivery of large, multi-team legal and regulatory programmes, from scoping through to close-out.

• Coordinate stakeholders across legal, compliance, risk, finance, technology and business units to keep milestones on track.

• Build and maintain trackers, dashboards and management reporting that give senior leadership clear visibility of progress, risks and issues.

• Identify risks and dependencies early, and escalate with a clear view of options rather than just problems.

• Run working-group and steering calls - set agendas, drive decisions, and follow up on actions.

• Act as the coordination point across teams for regulatory and licensing workstreams, including new-market applications.

• Maintain central repositories of licensing status and regulatory commitments across regions.

• Partner with data and technology teams on reporting and tooling where the work is data-driven.

• Work alongside another senior program manager, splitting a portfolio of projects and escalating jointly to the Head of Legal PMO.

What we're looking for

• 8-10 years' experience in program or project management, ideally within a law firm, in-house legal department, or another regulatory-heavy environment.

• A track record of driving cross-functional projects with senior stakeholders - influencing without authority.

• Prior PMO experience inside a legal function

• Comfort with ambiguity: able to create structure and process where none yet exists.

• Strong written and verbal communication, with the ability to simplify complex status for executive audiences.

• High discretion and sound judgement on confidential, sensitive matters.

• Experience building trackers, dashboards and management reporting.

Nice to haves

• Experience in crypto or fintech.

• Experience delivering licensing or regulatory application projects across multiple jurisdictions.

• Exposure to data- and technology-driven programmes, including working with BI or reporting tools.

• Experience working across time zones with US-based stakeholders; APAC coverage is helpful.

Why Binance

• Shape the future of finance

• Collaborate with world-class talent in a user-centric global organization with a flat structure

• Tackle challenging projects in a fast-paced and innovative enviornment with autonomy

• Thrive in a results-driven workplace with opportunities for career growth and continuous learning

• Competitive salary and company benefits

• Remote-first, work-from-home arrangement (may vary depending on the nature of the role and team)

Binance is committed to being an equal opportunity employer. We believe that having a diverse workforce is fundamental to our success.
