Which company? Program management responsibilities can differ vastly from one company to another

What are you looking to exit into? More of the same?

First impression: It’s a very generic title that could describe a lot of different roles.

Salary offer?

What exactly is a Strategic Program Manager? Program management, by definition, is tactical. Does it mean you will manage programs that contain projects enabling organizational strategies?
