Role 1: Senior IT Project Manager
Role Overview
The first position is a Senior IT Project Manager responsible for managing technology projects across both Agile and Waterfall environments.
The ideal candidate should also have Business Analysis capabilities, but the primary responsibility is Project Management. We are not looking for a BA who has moved into Project Management.
The additional BA capability would provide flexibility for future needs, including the ability to support or backfill BA responsibilities involving requirements gathering, user story creation, and working with business stakeholders.
A software development/technical background is preferred over a purely functional background. The individual will not be responsible for coding, but the ability to understand development work and identify obvious errors or inconsistencies would be a nice-to-have.
