You’ll hit full stride by the fourth month, combining your technical expertise and superior communication skills to guide multiple concurrent implementation projects to success, solving complex organizational and technical challenges along the way.
To be successful in this role, you’ll need to demonstrate all the hallmarks of a great project manager, including leadership, communication, and team-building skills. You’ll also need to master the consultative relationship, setting expectations, providing guidance, and staying ahead of industry trends so that your advice is on point. Finally, you’ll need to excel at building processes or improving existing ones, as driving consistency, efficiency, and excellence in our organization will be one of your mandates.

Qualifications
At least five years experience working in a customer-facing, high-volume role, preferably for a professional services or consulting organization
