Job Description

About the Company :

At Playlist, life's richest moments happen when people step away from screens to move, connect, explore, and play. We're building the definitive platform for intentional living, connecting people with inspiring experiences in fitness, wellness, and beyond. With popular brands like Mindbody and ClassPass, Playlist empowers businesses and individuals, making it effortless for aspirations to become actions. Join us in reshaping technology's role to foster meaningful, real-world connections.

The Role You'll Play

As a Lead Technical Program Manager on the Business Operations team, you'll lead complex, cross-functional initiatives that drive forward Mindbody's strategic priorities. Sitting within the Finance organization, you'll work across departments to translate business goals into structured, actionable plans—and keep execution on track through collaboration, insight, and momentum.

You'll serve as a trusted partner to senior leaders, including the Executive Leadership Team, helping to align teams, resolve blockers, and ensure timely, effective delivery. This role is built for someone who thrives in ambiguity, thinks in systems, and brings the focus and follow-through to turn strategy into real-world impact.

  • Lead high-priority programs with multiple stakeholders and executive visibility.
  • Turn abstract goals into clear, detailed plans that account for interdependencies, risks, and delivery milestones.
  • Partner with analysts to develop insights, test assumptions, and track performance through meaningful KPIs.
  • Coordinate across departments to drive alignment, surface issues, and accelerate decision-making.
  • Communicate program progress and priorities clearly—often directly to the CEO and executive team.
  • Operate with a builder's mindset, balancing structure with adaptability and getting things done when the path isn't fully defined.

Experience You Bring

  • 6+ years in management consulting, business operations, strategy, or program management at a tech company.
  • Experience leading complex, cross-functional initiatives with large stakeholder groups.
  • Known for driving outcomes and staying grounded in execution, even amid uncertainty.
  • Analytical mindset with the ability to synthesize data into actionable insights.
  • Strong business acumen—able to connect strategic decisions with operational and financial impact.
  • Excellent communicator who distills complexity into clarity and action.
  • Proficiency in Excel; experience with SQL, Tableau, or Looker is a plus.
  • Experience in B2B or SaaS environments is a plus.
  • Pay transparency

    It is Mindbody's intent to pay all Team Members competitive wages and salaries that are motivational, fair and equitable. The goal of Mindbody's compensation program is to be transparent, attract potential employees, meet the needs of all current employees, and encourage Team Members to stay with our organization.

    Actual compensation packages are based on several factors that are unique to each candidate, including but not limited to skill set, depth of experience, certifications, and specific work location.

    The base salary range for this position in the United States is $131,000 - $175,000. The total compensation package for this position may also include performance bonus, stock, benefits and / or other applicable incentive compensation plans.

    Have we piqued your curiosity?

    Sound like the role for you? We'd love to hear from you! Even if you're not 100% sure about potential fit, we still encourage you to apply. We're looking for the right person, not the perfect series of checkboxes.

    Playlist is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We highly value diversity at our company and encourage people of all different backgrounds, experiences, abilities and perspectives to apply. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status, or other protected characteristics.
