Type: This is a full-time position
About the Team
The Office of the CEO (OCEO) is a small, high-leverage enterprise team that operates at the center of the College Board. Working directly with the CEO, President, and senior leaders, OCEO strengthens and accelerates mission impact by ensuring the organization moves in a coherent, disciplined, and aligned way. The office brings together executive leadership support and enterprise execution—connecting strategy to action and enabling leaders to focus on what matters most for students.
Digital Workplace is a core function within OCEO focused on the systems, norms, and operating habits that enable modern execution in a distributed organization. The team is responsible for turning collaboration platforms and productivity tools into a connected digital workplace that supports clarity, transparency, and speed at scale. By establishing shared standards for how information is organized, how work is coordinated, and how leaders and teams collaborate day to day, Digital Workplace reduces friction, improves execution quality, and helps the organization operate as One College Board—regardless of location.
About the Opportunity
As Product Manager, Digital Workplace, you will be responsible for defining how enterprise productivity and collaboration tools are used to support execution, decision-making, and leadership workflows across the organization. Reporting to the Senior Director, Digital Workplace, you will translate enterprise needs into clear use cases, product requirements, and adoption strategies—ensuring tools solve real problems and are used consistently.
This role sits at the intersection of strategy, execution, and technology. You will work closely with leaders, staff, and enterprise partners to understand how work actually happens, identify friction points, and design practical digital solutions that improve clarity and productivity. You will partner with Technology to shape delivery while owning the business perspective: prioritization, intended usage patterns, and value realization.
Our ideal candidate is a strong product thinker who is motivated by impact, not features. You are curious about how organizations work, disciplined about prioritization, and skilled at turning complex needs into simple, scalable solutions that people actually use.
In this role, you will:
Enterprise Use-Case Strategy & Prioritization (30%)
Define and prioritize enterprise use cases with business outcomes for the productivity suite and collaboration tools, grounded in how leaders and staff actually execute work.
Diagnose friction in core workflows (decision-making, coordination, information sharing) and translate those needs into clear, high-value use cases.
Design and optimize end-to-end workflows across Digital Workforce platforms
Make informed tradeoffs among competing enterprise needs, balancing impact, feasibility, and organizational readiness.
Play a key role in evaluating, planning, and supporting major digital workplace platform transitions or capability shifts, with attention to sequencing, continuity, and adoption.
Product Roadmap & Delivery Partnership (25%)
Own the business roadmap and backlog for digital workplace capabilities, ensuring focus on the highest-leverage enterprise problems.
Translate complex, often ambiguous enterprise needs into clear product requirements and user stories for Technology partners.
Partner with Technology to align delivery timelines, scope, and tradeoffs, and to ensure solutions meet enterprise expectations for usability and coherence.
Act as the primary business voice in product decisions, advocating for simplicity, consistency, and execution impact.
Adoption, Enablement & Value Measurement (25%)
Design adoption strategies that go beyond training to address behavioral change, leadership expectations, and day-to-day usage patterns.
Use adoption and usage data, qualitative feedback, and enterprise signals to assess whether tools are solving the intended problems.
Lead iteration cycles based on evidence, adjusting use cases, guidance, or priorities when solutions are not delivering value.
Partner with enablement colleagues to ensure learning and onboarding reinforce intended ways of working.
Governance, Standards & Risk Alignment (10%)
Establish and maintain non-technical governance and intended usage patterns in partnership with Technology, Legal, Risk, and other stakeholders.
Help leaders navigate tradeoffs between flexibility and standardization to reduce fragmentation and risk.
Ensure digital workplace decisions align with enterprise standards, compliance expectations, and leadership practices.
Cross-Functional Collaboration & Stakeholder Engagement (10%)
Build trusted partnerships with Strategic Execution, Enterprise Rhythm & Leadership Enablement, and divisional teams to ensure tools support enterprise cadence and priorities.
Engage leaders and staff as thought partners—listening carefully, setting expectations, and pushing for clarity when needs are underspecified.
Communicate product decisions, changes, and rationale clearly to enterprise stakeholders.
