Advisor - Project Manager

Madison or Milwaukee, WI. / Hybrid

Far Well Project Advisors, LLC has openings for Project Managers to join our team.

At Far Well, we seek M-shaped Advisors—professionals who bring deep expertise in multiple areas along with the ability to connect and collaborate across disciplines.

The vertical bars of the "M" represent key technical competencies—skills and expertise that allow advisors to excel in disciplines such as Change Management, Project Management, Process Optimization, or Agile.

The horizontal connections illustrate the ability to leverage this expertise holistically across disciplines, collaborate across teams, and adapt to complex client needs. This marks a shift from the traditional T-shaped model, where individuals focused on depth in one area and breadth across others.
