About The Position

The Senior Project Manager plans and oversees the end-to-end delivery of assigned projects, ensuring delivery within scope, budget, and requirements. At this level, projects are typically of moderate to high complexity, risk, and exposure. The role may also be accountable for providing immediate supervision to project administration and coordination roles. The project will be initiated immediately, requiring the project manager to work with the operations team to identify and collect requirements. An immediate risk assessment, cost estimates, and a kick-off meeting with all concerned parties are necessary for introduction and forecasting next steps. Funding is generally completed "on the fly," necessitating a good understanding of benchmarking and/or current industry costs to provide budgets to the client. The candidate must be able to work independently on challenges to ensure the project keeps moving and understands the importance of a regular cadence of communication. They will need to navigate the client's organization to capture who should be engaged and when for project updates.
