. Lead the MN Phase 2 implementation of UKG Pro Timekeeping, managing day-to-day project activities, deliverables, timelines, and coordination with functional and technical SMEs across HR, Payroll, IT, and MN operations. Collaborate closely with the Program Manager, who retains responsibility for overarching program alignment across UKG Pro, Infor GHR, and Shift Wizard.

Support testing readiness and execution by coordinating UKG Pro test scenarios, scripts, results, and defect tracking, while collaborating with other PMs to understand cross-system impacts. Maintain comprehensive project documentation— including schedules, decisions, risks, and deliverable tracking—primarily in Smartsheet or similar tools.
