Senior Project Manager

About the role: 

Reporting to the Project Management Office, the Senior Project Manager is a high-impact leadership role responsible for driving the execution of the organization’s most complex, multi-million dollar strategic initiatives. You won’t just manage tasks; you will act as a strategic partner to executive leadership, navigating high-stakes environments and cross-functional dependencies to deliver transformational change. The successful candidate is a seasoned leader who blends rigorous project discipline with a deep understanding of business strategy, advanced analytics, and organizational change management.

What you'll do:

• Drive Strategic Delivery:Lead the full lifecycle of high-priority strategic projects, ensuring every initiative delivers measurable ROI and aligns with long-term business case objectives (scope, budget, and quality).
• Influence & Orchestrate: Work across business units to build high-level consensus, manage complex stakeholder ecosystems, and proactively resolve friction points between competing priorities.
• Architect Governance:Design and implement robust project governance frameworks, including sophisticated reporting structures, communication cadences, and change management strategies for enterprise-wide initiatives.
• Maximize Business Realization:Establish rigorous value-realization frameworks and advanced KPIs that connect project outputs to corporate strategy. You will lead regular impact-syncs to ensure the project team and executive sponsors are aligned on how deliverables drive bottom-line growth, efficiency, or competitive advantage, moving beyond "on-time delivery" to "on-value delivery."
• Executive Stewardship: A proven ability to act as a strategic partner to executive sponsors; you are comfortable navigating high-level stakeholders, providing data-backed recommendations, and respectfully challenging assumptions to ensure project integrity and strategic alignment.
• Mentor & Standardize: Contribute to the evolution of PMO methodologies and processes, mentoring junior project managers and championing best practices across the organization.

What you'll need to succeed:

• 8–10+ years of progressive project management experience, with a proven track record of delivering enterprise-scale initiatives.
• Bachelor’s Degree required
• PMP, nice to have
• Deep mastery of PMBOK standards and expert-level fluency in both Waterfall and Agile (Scrum/Kanban) methodologies.
• A strong commercial mindset with an intuitive grasp of how high-impact project work fuels our long-term vision. We are looking for a leader who is excited to 'double down' on our project portfolio and can translate our corporate roadmap into clear, actionable project success.
• Exceptional ability to craft and deliver compelling executive-level presentations that distill complex data into actionable insights.
• Proven ability to navigate ambiguity, negotiate resources in a matrixed environment, and lead teams through high-pressure situations.
• Highly organized and detail-oriented with the ability to manage multiple high-stakes portfolios simultaneously without losing sight of the "big picture."
