• Lead delivery of multiple concurrent, high-complexity IT projects with a wide range of budgets.
• Develop comprehensive project plans, milestones, and interdependency maps; proactively identify and resolve blockers before they impact delivery.
• Serve as the final escalation point for project-level issues, driving resolution without escalating to leadership except in exceptional circumstances.

Executive Stakeholder Management

• Build and maintain trusted relationships with C-suite executives, VP-level business owners, and IT leadership.
• Lead executive steering committee meetings; prepare and present concise status reports, risk summaries, and decision documents for senior audiences.
• Translate complex technical project details into clear business impact narratives for non-technical stakeholders.

• Manage vendor performance against contractual deliverables and SLAs; escalate and resolve disputes as needed.
• Negotiate contract modifications and scope changes in coordination with Procurement and Legal.

Portfolio and Program Management

• Maintain a holistic view of the IT project portfolio; identify resource conflicts, schedule dependencies, and risk accumulation across projects.
• Contribute to IT roadmap planning by providing delivery capacity estimates, risk assessments, and prioritization input to IT leadership.
• Drive cross-project coordination to ensure alignment with organizational strategy and IT architecture standards.

Governance, Standards, and Continuous Improvement

• Define, implement, and enforce project management governance standards, templates, and processes across the IT PMO.
• Evaluate and evolve the organization's use of project management tooling, including Smartsheet, to maximize efficiency, automation, and reporting quality.
• Champion and lead continuous improvement initiatives within IT; measurably reduce delivery risk and increase team throughput over time.
• Own post-project reviews and ensure lessons learned are documented and operationalized.

Team Leadership and Mentoring

• Mentor and coach junior project managers and project coordinators; provide regular feedback and support their professional development.
• Model best-in-class project management behaviors and set the performance standard for the team.
• Collaborate with IT leadership to evaluate team capacity and make recommendations on staffing and workload balancing.

Change Management

• Develop and execute change management plans for projects with significant organizational impact, including communications, training, and adoption tracking.
• Partner with HR and business unit leads to ensure smooth transitions for technology implementations affecting end users.

Required Qualifications

• 7 to 10+ years of end-to-end project management experience, with at least 5 years in an IT environment.
• Demonstrated track record of successfully delivering complex, large-scale IT projects on time and within budget.

• Proven ability to manage project budgets of $500K or greater, including forecasting, variance analysis, and financial reporting.
• Strong experience managing vendor relationships, contracts, and third-party deliverables.
• Demonstrated experience presenting to and managing relationships with VP- and C-suite-level stakeholders.
