We are seeking an experienced Senior Project Manager to manage enterprise infrastructure initiatives supporting a fast-paced retail organization. This individual will oversee the planning, execution, and delivery of complex infrastructure projects.

The ideal candidate is a seasoned project management professional with exceptional leadership, communication, and stakeholder management skills.

Responsibilities:

• Manage multiple concurrent infrastructure projects from initiation through successful implementation.
• Develop and maintain comprehensive project plans, schedules, budgets, risk logs, and executive status reporting.
• Coordinate cross-functional teams including Infrastructure, Network, Security, Cloud, End User Computing, Store Operations, Vendors, and Business Stakeholders.
• Facilitate project meetings, steering committees, sprint planning sessions, and executive updates.
• Identify project risks, dependencies, and issues while driving timely resolution and mitigation strategies.
• Manage project scope, change requests, resource planning, and delivery timelines.
• Partner with vendors and third-party service providers to ensure project milestones and deliverables are achieved.
• Support Agile and traditional project delivery methodologies based on project needs.
• Promote project management, best practices and continuous process improvement.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience.
• 8+ years of project management experience managing enterprise infrastructure or technology projects.
• Current Project Management Professional (PMP) certification.
• Current Certified ScrumMaster (CSM), Professional Scrum Master (PSM), or equivalent Scrum certification.
• Strong experience working in Agile environments with the ability to facilitate Scrum ceremonies and manage project backlogs.
• Ability to take high-level business and technical requirements and translate them into well-defined user stories, epics, and actionable work items.
• Experience partnering with solution architects to refine technical requirements and collaborating closely with development teams to decompose work into manageable tasks.
• Technical aptitude to understand infrastructure concepts, ask the right questions, and effectively communicate with architects, engineers, and developers.
• Proven ability to engage with development teams to clarify requirements, remove delivery roadblocks, and ensure a shared understanding of project objectives and deliverables.
• Demonstrated success managing multiple large-scale projects simultaneously.
• Strong executive presence with excellent written, verbal, and presentation skills.
• Proven ability to influence stakeholders and manage cross-functional teams.
• Experience with project management and Agile tools such as Azure DevOps, Jira, and Confluence.

Requirements
