As a senior project management advisor, you help direct material, time, IT and human resources on cross-sector projects to meet objectives on time and on budget. You analyze project feasibility and opportunities, develop action plans, define milestones and coordinate project teams. You lead and influence development projects and complex, highly innovative strategic initiatives involving multiple sectors.
