WHY THIS ROLE

This is not a bigger version of the same job. You own the number, the client relationship, and the people. The client has the volume to keep senior people on significant work, promotes from within rather than hiring over top of its bench, and gives its senior project managers the authority to actually run a job instead of routing every decision upstairs.
