• Build and maintain detailed project plans, work breakdown structures, and forecasts
• Own financial tracking, budget management, and variance reporting
• Coordinate internal teams and external vendors to meet delivery commitments
• Facilitate working sessions, status meetings, and decision-making forums
• Serve as the central point of connection between business partners, IT teams, vendors, and leadership
• Identify, track, and resolve risks, issues, and cross-team dependencies
• Proactively escalate risks that may impact delivery, scope, or financial targets
• Provide clear, concise status updates and documentation for leadership and stakeholders
• Ensure alignment with established project management standards and governance
• Drive accountability for commitments and delivery outcomes

• Exposure to large enterprise or highly matrixed organizations
• Familiarity with formal PM governance frameworks (PMO standards, stage gates, etc.)

Education & certifications you need

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience
• PMP or similar project management certification is a plus, but not required
