Responsibilities
- Plan and run projects end to end — from intake through delivery. Build the project plan, line up the people, assign the work, and drive it to done
- Turn requirements into a plan — take what the business needs and what the company is trying to do and merge them into one plan that the delivery team and the technical staff can work from
- Stay ahead of risk — watch progress, spot the problems early, and put a fix in motion before they become escalations
- Keep stakeholders, clients, and vendors in the loop — send the updates, raise the issues that need raising, and drive them to a resolution
- Manage scope and schedule changes cleanly — use a real change process so the timeline and the plan stay honest
- Measure how projects are doing — track health and delivery metrics in Smartsheet and report them straight
- Keep the documentation current — project records, plans, and status that anyone can pick up
- Hold the line on standards — keep the work inside company policy and the team's project standards
Skills
- 5+ years running projects in IT or the insurance industry
- Extensive experience in Smartsheet and Microsoft Office (Office 365) hands-on: you build the trackers, dashboards, Gantt and Kanban views, not just fill them in. Strong Excel and PowerPoint
- Experience taking projects through the full SDLC, from early development to implementation
- Solid organization and attention to detail; you juggle several projects without dropping any
- Problem-solver who adapts when the requirements move mid-project
- Bachelor's Degree required or equivalent experience
- Solid communications skills both written and verbal
- How you work with people matters as much as what you know
- Be curious enough to understand the work before you plan it
- Show empathy for the teams delivering and the stakeholders waiting
- Confident giving and receiving feedback
- Demonstrate flexibility when priorities shift
- Be resilient, calm, and have a good-humored attitude when a project gets hard
- PMP or CAPM certification is preferred
- Contact center, sales-technology, or other regulated-industry / insurance operations background is ideal
