About The Position

At Sand Cherry Associates, we excel in the design and delivery of strategic customer-centric initiatives through digitally native, data-empowered solutions. Our client’s confidence in us is centered on exceptionally skilled, high-energy talent working with the support of the full Sand Cherry team. Finding the right match for this role is a critical aspect of continuing that success. We are seeking a highly skilled Senior Project Manager to lead strategic, cross-functional initiatives within our client's broadband organization. This role will primarily focus on driving a critical outage management program aimed at improving how service disruptions are identified, managed, and communicated to customers across the enterprise footprint. The ideal candidate is a seasoned project/program management professional who excels at coordinating complex initiatives, aligning stakeholders, managing risks, and delivering business outcomes. While the role is heavily focused on project and program leadership (80-90%), the successful candidate must also possess enough business analysis and requirements experience (10-20%) to partner effectively with Business Analysts, validate requirements, identify process gaps, and contribute to business requirements documentation. This is a hybrid role that requires 4 days per week in the Stamford, CT or Denver, CO office. All qualified candidates must be authorized to work in the United States without visa sponsorship or visa transfers. Please note that we do not work C2C.
