Summary
Working up to 20 hours per week within the Project Management Office (PMO), the Part-Time Project Manager provides project management expertise and leadership for mid-size to large scale projects across the university's academic, administrative, and research functions. This flexible position is designed for experienced project management professionals with a background in higher education, with work hours varying based on the number, size, and complexity of assigned projects.

  • Define project objectives, scope, and deliverables in collaboration with relevant stakeholders, establishing measurable metrics to track progress against plan.
  • Decompose complex projects into phases that prioritize outcomes, facilitate decision making, and are clearly articulated in project documentation, with milestone tracked at each phase.
  • Track and monitor project progress, regularly reporting performance using appropriate tools and techniques.
  • Manage changes to project scope, schedule, and budget using formal change control processes, keeping scope creep and variance within approved thresholds.
  • Proactively identify and mitigate project risks, escalating issues to stakeholders when necessary, and maintaining a documented risk mitigation log across open risks.
  • Ensure timely, on budget, and within scope project delivery for all assigned projects.

Required Qualifications
  • Proven expertise in creating and managing project documentation, including project charters, project plans, status reports, risk assessments, success metrics, and change control logs.
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, demonstrated through agenda creation, meeting facilitation, meeting notes, action items, risk analysis, and stakeholder engagement.
  • In depth understanding of project management concepts, practices, and procedures, particularly in educational or startup environments.
  • Strong organizational skills, with attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple tasks concurrently.
  • Proficiency in project planning and tracking tools, including Smartsheet and other relevant software.
  • Bachelor's degree.
