Salary Range: $120,000–$130,000


Partnering with Streck

We’re excited to be partnering with Streck, a global leader in clinical diagnostics and life sciences, on the search for a Senior Program Manager – Product Development & Operations. This role is a key addition to Streck’s enterprise Program Management organization and will play a central role in driving execution across product development, operations, and commercialization initiatives.


Streck is known for its commitment to quality, innovation, and scientific integrity, offering a collaborative environment where experienced program leaders can have meaningful impact across the organization.

This opportunity is ideal for a seasoned program leader with broad experience spanning product development and operational execution, who thrives in regulated environments and enjoys driving results across highly cross-functional teams. This is an individual contributor role with significant cross-functional leadership and execution responsibility, but no direct people management.


The Opportunity

As a Senior Program Manager, you will lead complex, cross-functional programs that support Streck’s product development and operational objectives—from early planning through execution, launch readiness, and post-market support. You’ll serve as a central point of accountability, ensuring alignment across R&D, Quality, Regulatory, Operations, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, and Commercial teams.

This role offers high visibility, meaningful ownership, and the opportunity to help mature scalable, enterprise-level program management practices as Streck continues to grow.


What You’ll Do

Program Leadership & Execution

• Lead end-to-end programs supporting product development, operational readiness, and commercialization

• Own program scope, schedules, budgets, risks, and delivery outcomes

• Build and maintain integrated master schedules, dashboards, and reporting using Smartsheet

• Drive execution across R&D, Quality, Regulatory, Operations, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, and Commercial teams


Cross-Functional & Stakeholder Management

• Facilitate core team meetings, executive reviews, and decision forums using Microsoft Teams

• Communicate program status, risks, dependencies, and tradeoffs clearly to senior leadership

• Influence and align stakeholders in a matrixed, regulated environment


Risk, Quality & Regulatory Alignment

• Proactively identify and manage program risks, dependencies, and mitigation plans

• Ensure programs align with design controls, change management, and regulated development requirements

• Partner with Quality and Regulatory teams to support audits, reviews, and inspections as needed


Process, Tools & Continuous Improvement

• Contribute to the development and scaling of enterprise program management processes and governance

• Act as a power user in Smartsheet and Microsoft Teams to drive execution rigor and transparency

• Apply AI-enabled tools to improve planning, reporting, and operational efficiency where appropriate


What We’re Looking For

Required Qualifications

• 8 years of program or project management experience in regulated life sciences environments

• Demonstrated success leading complex, cross-functional programs with enterprise impact

• Strong understanding of regulated product development lifecycles and operational execution

• Expert-level proficiency in Smartsheet (scheduling, dashboards, automation)

• Expert-level proficiency in Microsoft Teams for execution and collaboration

• Comfortable operating in highly matrixed, cross-functional organizations

• Willingness and ability to relocate to Omaha, Nebraska


Nice to Have

• Experience implementing or scaling enterprise PMO or program management frameworks

• Hands-on experience using AI tools for program planning, reporting, or automation

• PMP, PgMP, or similar certification

• Background with Midwest-based medical device, diagnostics, or life sciences organizations


Why Streck

• Opportunity to drive execution across mission-critical products and operations with global impact

• High-ownership, high-visibility role influencing product development and enterprise execution

• Chance to help shape tools, processes, and standards as the Program Management function evolves

• Competitive compensation, benefits, and relocation support


If you’re a senior program leader who brings credibility, execution discipline, and a strong bias for action—and you want to help deliver meaningful products in a regulated environment—this is a compelling next step.
