IT projects assigned will involve planning, coordination, and execution of various ERP, Salesforce, IT Service Management, Cybersecurity, Microsoft, AI exploration, and/or data fo-cused technology projects across multiple technology platforms. These projects may be DivIHN internal but more often will be part of a DivIHN client initiative and will vary in technology plat-forms and scope.

The ideal candidate will have broad foundational knowledge in many types of IT systems as well as flexible capabilities within MS Project, JIRA, and Agile. The ideal candidate would approach work in a team focused, collaborative way and be capable of demonstrating trust and transparency.
• Due to some project restrictions, the candidate must be US based.

Project Management: Manage resources, schedules, and financials. Adhere to quality and con-trol guidelines including CMMI3 and ISO requirements if applicable. Demonstrate active project plan usage and leverage that plan to assign tasks and ensure team members are clear on ac-tions and delivery dates. Schedule and lead team, stakeholder, and executive level meetings with appropriate presentation deliverables. Track and report project performance against prede-fined metrics, taking corrective actions if necessary to ensure the project is up to date and project documentation is accurately recorded.
Problem-solving: Monitor progress, set deadlines, solve issues, and manage shifting priorities. Analyze and present multiple solutions along with project positive recommendations.
Risk management: Identify, assess, document, and control threats to the project. Actively manage risk and issue logs and help drive closure on any related mitigation actions.
Process improvement: Contribute to initiatives that improve project delivery on specific prob-lems and the broader Program Management CoE. Work closely with the PMCoE Director to fur-ther project management expertise within the company and help standardize project processes and reporting.
Business and Technology: Learn and be able to field questions on project related business pro-cesses and technology aspects. Background as a technologist is strongly preferred.
Collaboration and Communication: Actively and openly collaborate with project team, internal stakeholders, client project team, and client executives/stakeholders.
