Project Manager, Operations Manager, Program ​/ Project Manager

A large and growing Sporting Goods Wholesaling company is seeking an IT Project Manager to join their PMO team. This role will require similar job duties to a Portfolio Manager, specifically overseeing project portfolios within the Operations Department. This is a completely remote role, but will require some travel (up to 5% for now, but may slightly increase in the future).

In this role, you will be responsible for developing and implementing project portfolio management processes within a specified department, implementing and utilizing PMO methodologies. You will represent the status of the portfolio at all portfolio governance team meetings, and will be responsible for being the advocate of the portfolio process and help educate the department on portfolio management. You will be responsible for prioritizing and coordinating all projects (not just technology), ensuring high-quality information and timely status updates, identifying and mitigating risks of the portfolio, and establishing a culture of excellence.

You will do this by fostering relationships with stakeholders and sponsors while adhering to PMI methodologies and best practices.
