• Coordinating logistics for special vehicle and component demonstrations for technical and non-technical audiences.
• Maintaining a lessons-learned tracker to help feed insights back into process-improvement and recall-prevention initiatives.
• Applying program-management tools (project plans, trackers, dashboards, RAID logs) to monitor multiple concurrent investigations and flag risks proactively.

You'll have...

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Business Administration, Program/Project Management, or a related field is prefered.
• Provide dedicated program-management support to the CCRG Chair and Deputy Chair, maintaining trackers, dashboards, and status reports across multiple concurrent safety-defect and compliance investigations.
• Plan, organize, and facilitate investigation-related meetings—building agendas, driving discussion, capturing minutes and action items, and following up with cross-functional stakeholders.
• Assist in preparing investigation documentation, presentations, and reports, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and compliance with document-retention and regulatory requirements.
• Coordinate cross-functional communication and information-gathering among Product Development, Manufacturing, Customer Service, Suppliers, and field organizations to support fact-finding for active investigations.
• Support logistics and coordination for special vehicle and component demonstrations, special tests, and field surveys.
• Maintain and update the team's lessons-learned repository.
• Partner with regional and global teams to help coordinate resolution of worldwide vehicle concerns, ensuring alignment on timelines and next steps.

Even better, you may have...

• PMP, CAPM, or similar program/project management certification.
• Experience coordinating cross-functional meetings or facilitating task forces in an engineering, automotive, or regulatory environment.
• Familiarity with safety, quality, or compliance investigation processes.
• Strong organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously.
