Senior Project Administrator
About The Position
At SESLOC, it is the people that make the place. Rooted in academics, and locally headquartered for over 80 years, we are the credit union with the funny name. But to us, financial dreams and goals are serious business. The Senior Project Administrator (SPA) leads the Project Delivery Resource Center (PDRC) and serves as a central point of coordination, governance, and guidance for project delivery across SESLOC. The role supports department‑led projects by providing standardized processes, tools, coaching, and visibility to enable effective project planning, execution, and reporting. The SPA partners with employees at all levels of the organization to promote consistent use of PDRC frameworks, facilitate communication, surface risks and issues, and support informed decision‑making throughout the project lifecycle. While the primary focus of the role is governance and enablement, the SPA may periodically serve as the project lead for assigned projects when additional support or coordination is required. The SPA acts as a champion for project delivery discipline at SESLOC, supporting the ongoing development and adoption of project delivery standards, policies, and procedures aligned with organizational priorities.

- Experience supporting project coordination, governance, or project delivery in a fast-paced environment.
- Ability to guide and support project teams in planning, scheduling, and executing work across the project lifecycle.
