  • Ensure project plan is aligned with business expectations and strategy.
  • Serve as the Project’s ‘source of truth’ through proactive management and documentation.
  • Work closely and collaboratively with other project teams, business areas and external parties to ensure interdependencies are identified early and managed successfully.
  • Participate in cross-functional teams that will complete the following: initial research and design, creating and pitching proposals, driving implementation through all project phases, evaluation and review, and performance monitoring.
  • Perform duties and activities within prescribed budget for project; including quality assurance testing, communications and prepare client for sustainment & ongoing work.
  • Drive project effectiveness, efficiency, and performance, through project management execution and motivating project team members.
  • Support Business Lead through preparation of Terms of Reference (ToR), Requests for Proposals (RFPs) and Request for Quotations (RFQs) procurement type documents, review and assist evaluations.
  • Monitor, document and oversee consultants (vendors/third-parties) to ensure work streams advance as planned and deliverables are completed to meet project objectives.
  • Prepare, review and provide presentations, when necessary to the Executive, Project Team, internal and external stakeholders, as needed.

WHAT YOU’VE DONE

  • Experience leading medium to large multi-departmental & enterprise level projects.
  • You are familiar with the complexities of compliance or regulated industries such as banking or insurance.

  • Ability to lead people observing AMA values and people-first approach culture.
