About the Role

As a Senior Project Manager, you will own the complete delivery story for complex benefits challenges, from client conversation through successful go-live. You'll lead through complexity, build trusted relationships with C-suite executives, steer multi-million dollar initiatives, and mentor future leaders. This role requires balancing strategic vision with meticulous execution, navigating ambiguity, inspiring cross-functional teams, and turning intricate challenges into client wins.

Responsibilities

  • Steer governance forums, including steering committee calls, executive status reviews, and decision meetings.
  • Present insights, flag risks, and secure buy-in for critical decisions.
  • Ensure alignment and integration across workstreams including configuration, data, QA, development, and integration teams.
  • Act as the primary client contact for concerns, scope shifts, and project status.
  • Proactively manage risks by spotting dependencies, modeling scenarios, stress-testing timelines, and presenting recommendations.
  • Accountable for scope, schedule, budget, and quality.
  • Lead change management, scope control, and financial tracking.
  • Plan and optimize resource allocation across multiple workstreams.
  • Champion PMO standards and best practices.
  • Mentor junior project managers and coordinators.
  • Harness AI and automation for governance, including executive dashboards, risk trend analysis, dependency mapping, and delivery forecasting.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of project management experience, with proven success delivering complex Defined Benefit pension implementation projects end-to-end.
  • Mastery of client-facing software implementation delivery, particularly projects with multiple workstreams and senior stakeholders.
  • Deep knowledge of pension administration—processes, pain points, and technology landscapes.
  • Executive-level communication and stakeholder management skills.
  • Demonstrated expertise in risk management, financial control, and change control across large-scale initiatives.
  • Proven track record leading governance forums and steering committees with senior client stakeholders.
  • Leadership of integrated, multi-disciplinary teams across configuration, data, QA, product, development, and integration functions.
  • AI fluency and digital leadership mindset—hands-on experience applying generative AI, copilots, or automation to improve delivery insights, governance, and decision support.
  • Understanding of responsible AI practices, including data privacy, security, and appropriate use of enterprise-approved tools.
  • Ability to identify and champion practical AI use cases (e.g., executive reporting automation, risk trend analysis, dependency mapping, forecasting).
