Job description

Position: Tax System Program Manager
Location: Baltimore, MD
Duration: 12+ Months
Job Description:
The Tax System Program Manager will be responsible for the end-to-end oversight of the implementation of a new tax system for the client. This includes vendor management, implementation, data migration, user training, and post-go-live stabilization. This role requires a leader who can navigate the complexities of a large public sector environment, manage diverse stakeholder interests, and ensure the program delivers on its objectives of improved efficiency, enhanced constituent services, increased revenue capture, and robust compliance.
Responsibilities:
  • Strategic Program Planning: Develop and maintain the comprehensive program roadmap, charter, and governance structure. Define program scope, goals, and deliverables in collaboration with senior leadership and key stakeholders.
  • Governance & Leadership: Lead the Program Steering Committee, providing regular, transparent status reports on budget, schedule, risks, and milestones to executive leadership and Council.
  • Vendor & Contract Management: Serve as the primary point of contact for the selected implementation partner(s). Participate in contract negotiations, manage vendor performance, and ensure adherence to Service Level Agreements (SLAs) and contractual obligations.
  • Financial Oversight: Manage the multi-million-dollar program budget. Responsible for meticulous tracking of expenditures, forecasting, and managing contingencies to deliver the program within budget.
  • Stakeholder Engagement: Act as the central communication hub for all program stakeholders, including the Assessor's Office, Treasurer/Tax Collector, Finance Department, IT and the public. Proactively manage expectations and build consensus.
  • Organizational Change Management (OCM): Champion and co-lead a comprehensive OCM strategy. Ensure effective communication plans, robust user training programs, and business process re-engineering activities are successfully executed to drive user adoption and minimize disruption.
  • Risk & Issue Management: Proactively identify, assess, and mitigate program-level risks (technical, financial, operational, political). Manage and resolve escalated issues from individual project teams.
  • Team & Resource Management: Lead a matrixed team of internal subject matter experts, IT professionals, and external consultants. Coordinate resources across multiple interconnected project workstreams (e.g., data conversion, system integration, testing, training).
  • Integration & Technical Oversight: Ensure the new tax system integrates seamlessly with other core municipal systems, such as Workday, GIS, Permitting, and cashiering systems.

Minimum Education and Experience Requirements:
  • Technical background including a bachelor's degree in computer science, Information Technology, or related field. Equivalent work experience will also be considered.
  • Program Management - 5 years
  • Progressive experience in managing large scale, complex technical transformations - 10 years
  • Experience in financial systems is preferred
  • Application Development or Data Analysis backgrounds preferred along with experience managing SaaS vendors.

Required Skills, Knowledge, and Abilities:
  • Leadership skills, with the ability to develop and communicate the project objectives, inspire and motivate the application team, and maintain alignment with the business strategy.
  • Demonstrated knowledge of popular SDLC models, process, deliverables, and Application.
