Overview

Title: Senior Project Manager

Location: 100% Remote (PST)

Type: Contract (multi-year potential)

• Communicate clearly and concisely with stakeholders at multiple levels, including executive leadership
• Drive alignment across teams by balancing scope, timeline, budget, and business impact
• Apply project management frameworks and best practices while adapting to the needs of the initiative (Agile, Waterfall, Hybrid)

• 10–15+ years of progressive project management experience with clear career growth and increasing responsibility
• Demonstrated ownership of projects tied to business outcomes, not just delivery of tasks or processes
• Strong ability to explain what problem was being solved, how it was solved, and what changed as a result
• Experience working in large, enterprise, highly regulated environments (e.g., healthcare, financial services, insurance, compliance-heavy industries)
• Background delivering end-user–facing systems, platforms, or capabilities
• Proven leadership through complexity, ambiguity, and organizational change
• Solid project management foundation (PMO experience, formal PM methodologies, or equivalent practical experience)

• Experience working within or alongside PMOs
• Exposure to business functions such as HR, Finance, Claims, Membership, Operations, or Customer Platforms
• History of being promoted or entrusted with larger initiatives over time
• Experience partnering closely with IT while maintaining a strong business lens
