The Senior Project Manager (Contract) will lead a portfolio of IT initiatives and oversee multiple Project Managers to ensure projects are planned, governed, and delivered successfully. This role is highly hands-on: you’ll provide active coaching and “PM enablement” (as needed) to keep projects on track—removing blockers, strengthening execution, and ensuring consistent delivery practices across the program. You’ll manage complex workstreams such as application development, legacy application migrations to modern platforms, and data migration efforts. The ideal candidate is a well-rounded IT program leader who can work effectively across applications, data, and infrastructure teams—and who can manage budgets, forecasts, and resource plans with discipline.
