[Hiring] Senior Project Manager @Bradshaw Home

Role Description

As a founding member of our rapidly evolving Project Management team, you will provide end-to-end ownership of complex, high-impact new product development (NPD) programs. You will lead multiple cross-functional teams through the NPD process from concept to retail launch, ensuring projects are delivered on time, on cost, and on spec.

Because our PMO is a newly established function, you will play a pivotal role in shaping our operational standards, creating deep and meaningful partnerships companywide, and demonstrating project management's strategic value. You serve as a strategic partner, facilitator, and escalation point—driving alignment at leadership levels, navigating high ambiguity, and setting the standard for execution excellence.

Responsibilities

• Partner closely with Product Managers, Marketing, R&D, Engineering, Sourcing, Operations, Quality, and Creative at both working and leadership levels.
• Facilitate high‑impact meetings, drive decision‑making, and ensure alignment on priorities, commitments, and deliverables across functions.
• Proactively identify, assess, and manage risks across programs with significant business impact.
• Develop mitigation and contingency plans, escalate appropriately, and prevent late‑stage surprises through early visibility and action.
• Provide clear, concise, and strategic project updates to cross‑functional leaders and stakeholders.
• Influence alignment and decision‑making by clearly communicating risks, trade‑offs, and recommendations.
• Lead efforts to strengthen PMO processes, tools, and standards.
• Identify systemic gaps across teams and drive improvements that enable more predictable, efficient, and scalable product launches.
• Help design, pilot, and champion new PMO tools, templates, and communication cadences that make the team more efficient.

• Bachelor's degree required (Business, Operations, Engineering, Supply Chain, or similar).
• Typically 7–10+ years of professional experience, including extensive ownership of complex NPD programs.

Requirements

• Expert proficiency in Excel, PowerPoint, and project management tools.
• Detail‑Oriented: Manages complex, interdependent project details across multiple programs, anticipating downstream impacts to scope, timing, cost, and quality.

• Cross‑Functional Fluency: Demonstrates deep fluency across Brand, Engineering, Sourcing, Operations, Quality, and other partner functions.

• Calm in the Storm: Maintains composure, clarity, and decisiveness during periods of significant pressure or uncertainty.
• Influence Without Authority: Builds strong, trust‑based relationships across the organization and influences outcomes through credibility and expertise.
• Attention to Detail: Continuously monitors program health at both project and portfolio levels.
