Senior Project Manager - Digital & Salesforce Initiatives

Role Overview

We are seeking a Senior Project Manager to lead two parallel, high-visibility strategic initiatives within a technology-enabled organization. This role will balance ownership of an in-flight customer-facing digital portal and a Salesforce sales process optimization initiative currently in early planning. The Project Manager will be responsible for end-to-end delivery, financial oversight, stakeholder communication, and risk management across both efforts. This is a fast-paced role requiring strong leadership, adaptability, and the ability to partner effectively with Product Owners, technical teams, and senior business stakeholders.

Key Responsibilities:

Project Delivery & Execution

Lead two concurrent initiatives with a 50/50 split:

• A customer-facing digital portal already in active development
• A Salesforce sales process optimization project in initiation and planning

Develop, baseline, and maintain comprehensive project plans, schedules, and delivery milestones

Drive projects through execution to targeted completion by September 30, communicating risks or adjustments transparently

Stakeholder & Team Leadership

Serve as the primary point of accountability across business, product, and technology teams

Partner closely with strong Product Owners and in-house development teams

Lead governance cadence including stand-ups, touchpoints, and executive-level status reporting

Communicate clearly and concisely with business stakeholders, focusing on outcomes and business impact rather than technical detail

Financial & Risk Management

Own project financials end-to-end, including budgets funded by the business

Coordinate regularly with IT Finance and Business Finance partners

Proactively identify, manage, and resolve project risks through closure or formal acceptance

Adapt quickly to scope changes and evolving priorities

Delivery Environment & Tools

• Use Smartsheet as the primary project management tool
• Leverage Jira and Clarity for tracking and reporting
• Operate within a hybrid delivery model (not fully Agile)
• Manage work completed fully in-house (no external implementation partners)

Required Qualifications

• Approximately 7+ years of project management experience
• Proven success managing complex, multi-workstream initiatives
• Strong financial acumen with experience managing budgets and forecasts
• Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills
• Demonstrated strength in risk management, beyond simple identification
• Comfortable operating in fast-paced environments with changing scope and priorities
