About The Position

The Senior Project Manager independently leads complex projects and engagements across multiple workstreams, stakeholder groups, vendors, and delivery dependencies. The role integrates scope, schedule, budget, quality, resources, governance, and change into a coherent delivery approach, using sound judgment to navigate ambiguity, manage tradeoffs, and maintain momentum when plans or assumptions change. The Senior Project Manager anticipates delivery risks, facilitates difficult tradeoff and recovery discussions, and gives senior stakeholders clear, decision-ready recommendations. The role also mentors project managers and strengthens governance and delivery discipline while remaining focused on assigned projects rather than assuming ownership of a broader program or account portfolio. The position is remote in the United States, may require travel up to 30% as project and client needs require, and has an 85% utilization target.

Strong communication and facilitation skills, including leading complex stakeholder forums and presenting decision-ready options to senior audiences.
Ability to coordinate cross-functional client and internal teams through ambiguity, shifting priorities, and changing delivery conditions.
