Program Manager, Client Advocacy

Tampa, FL Backed by leading Silicon Valley investors, Peregrine helps public safety organizations, state and local and governments, federal agencies, and private-sector institutions address society’s challenges with unprecedented speed and accuracy. Our AI-enabled platform turns siloed and disconnected data into operational intelligence — instantly surfacing mission-critical information to empower better, faster decisions that improve outcomes at every touchpoint. Today Peregrine supports hundreds of customers across 30+ states and two countries, serving more than 125 million people — and we’re amplifying our impact as we expand into the enterprise and internationally. We're seeking a Program Manager to take end-to-end ownership of complex, multi-agency deployments supporting large local, state, and regional public safety implementations. You'll lead strategic partnerships across distributed stakeholder environments, align competing priorities, and drive product adoption that delivers measurable mission impact. This role operates at the intersection of strategy, operations, and execution—requiring sound judgment in high-ambiguity environments with limited central authority. Experience in regulated, enterprise, or cross-organizational environments is highly relevant.

The Role

You'll serve as the operational backbone for the entire lifecycle of complex deployments, from executive engagement and governance design to on-site adoption and value realization. You'll develop account plans aligned to defined success criteria, navigate politically complex stakeholder landscapes, and coordinate cross-functional teams to deliver outcomes across multiple agencies and jurisdictions. A meaningful portion of your time will be spent on-site building deep relationships with agency leaders and end users, translating their operational needs into product direction, and ensuring every deployment drives real-world impact. You'll design governance structures that enable clear decision-making, manage program protocols including contracting and compliance workflows, and serve as the connective tissue between Deployment Strategy, Training, Sales, Product, and Legal teams. This role is critical to customer retention and expansion, and the right candidate needs to be a strategic thinker, a trusted advisor to senior leaders, and an execution-focused problem solver who thrives under ambiguity.

• You bring a learning mindset and adapt quickly to new organizational structures, operating models, and use cases
• You're a clear and credible communicator who can shift seamlessly between executive stakeholders, operational teams, and internal cross-functional partners

• 7+ years leading complex, multi-party programs or implementations with demonstrated ability to establish governance and deliver outcomes across parallel workstreams
• Experience operating in high-ambiguity environments, navigating competing stakeholder incentives and evolving constraints
• Proven ability to build trust with senior customer leaders and maintain alignment through organizational change
