Manager Project Manager information

What does a project manager do?

A Project Manager is responsible for planning, executing, and overseeing projects to ensure they are completed on time, within budget, and meet the required quality standards. They coordinate the efforts of team members, manage resources, and communicate with stakeholders throughout the project lifecycle. Project Managers also identify and mitigate risks, resolve issues, and ensure that project objectives are achieved according to the defined scope.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a project manager, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Project Manager, you need strong organizational, leadership, and problem-solving skills, often supported by a bachelor’s degree and experience in project management. Familiarity with project management software (like Microsoft Project, Asana, or Jira) and certifications such as PMP or PRINCE2 are commonly expected. Outstanding communication, negotiation, and adaptability set exceptional project managers apart. These skills and qualifications are crucial for delivering projects on time, within scope, and fostering effective teamwork.

What are some common challenges faced by project managers in balancing leadership and project delivery responsibilities?

Manager Project Managers often juggle the dual responsibilities of overseeing a team of project managers while also ensuring successful delivery of complex projects. A common challenge is allocating sufficient time to support team development and mentorship without compromising project deadlines or quality. Additionally, they must ensure clear communication across multiple stakeholders and resolve resource conflicts proactively. Balancing strategic oversight with hands-on project problem-solving is key, and effective delegation and time management are essential to thrive in this role.

The Project Manager leads strategic and operational projects that drive efficiency, support organizational growth, and deliver measurable outcomes. Reporting to the Director of the Enterprise Project Management Office, this role owns the full project lifecycle-applying PMI-aligned methodologies to plan, execute, monitor, and close cross-functional projects that span operations, technology, compliance, and new business implementation.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Project Leadership & Delivery
  • Lead cross-functional projects from initiation through closure, following established EPMO protocols and PMI-aligned methodologies (waterfall, agile, hybrid).

  • Develop and maintain project charters, schedules, risk logs, CRAIDD logs, communication plans, and other required documentation.

  • Ensure project scope, timeline, budget, and quality remain aligned with strategic objectives and stakeholder expectations.

  • Facilitate project meetings, status reporting, risk/issue management, and decision tracking.

Stakeholder & Cross-Functional Coordination
  • Coordinate with executive sponsors, subject-matter experts, operations, IT, finance, compliance, and external partners to ensure deliverables are completed on time and on budget.

  • Manage stakeholder expectations through proactive, transparent communication.

  • Serve as a trusted partner to Directors of Operations, Product Owners, and Implementation leads throughout the delivery lifecycle.

New Business Implementation
  • Support new state and contract launches by managing readiness activities, training coordination, vendor integration, and go-live execution.

  • Partner with the Implementation function to ensure smooth handoff of projects into operations.

Continuous Improvement
  • Identify workflow bottlenecks and champion process improvements through change requests and standardized SOPs.

  • Contribute to the maturity of EPMO templates, tools, and playbooks (Monday.com, Smartsheet, Microsoft Planner/Project, SharePoint).

  • Escalate high-impact opportunities and risks through appropriate governance channels.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
  • Bachelor's degree in Business, Operations, Healthcare Administration, Information Systems, or a related field.

  • 5-8 years of progressive project management experience leading complex, cross-functional initiatives.

  • Strong working knowledge of PMI's PMBOK-based methodology; PMP certification strongly preferred.

  • Demonstrated capability across multiple delivery methods (waterfall, agile, hybrid).

  • Proficiency with project management platforms such as Monday.com, Smartsheet, Microsoft Planner, Microsoft Project, or Jira.

  • Excellent written, verbal, and executive-level communication skills.

  • Proven ability to influence without formal authority and work effectively across all levels of an organization.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience in a private equity-backed, high-growth, or transformation-oriented environment.

  • Experience in healthcare, Medicaid, HCBS/self-direction, financial management services, payroll, or a similarly regulated services industry.

  • Experience supporting RFP responses, new business implementations, or multi-state operational rollouts.

  • Lean Six Sigma or continuous improvement certification.

Success Measures in the First 12 Months
  • Consistent on-time, on-budget project delivery across an assigned portfolio.

  • High stakeholder satisfaction scores at project close.

  • Timely and complete project documentation, communications, and status reporting.

  • Meaningful contributions to EPMO standards, templates, and continuous improvement initiatives.

WORK ENVIRONMENT
  • Position is hybrid; with office locations in Sturgis, MI, Southington, CT, Silver Spring, MD, High Point, NC, and Salem, OR, with remote candidates considered based on qualifications and travel flexibility. Occasional travel to state operations, sponsor meetings, and consulting partner sessions expected.
