Project Manager

Remote
Full Time
Professional Services
Experienced

The Project Manager (PM) is accountable for the planning, coordination, and execution of client-facing projects across the Professional Services organization. Each structured engagement follows a formal project plan and adheres to best practice delivery methodologies. The PM builds that plan, manages it through execution, and ensures that all resources, milestones, deliverables, risks, and stakeholders are aligned to the expected outcomes. Use of Wrike to manage projects, phases, tasks, milestones, and, in some cases, client communications is foundational to the role.

The PM also owns the development of a consistent and scalable project delivery framework. This framework serves as the basis for repeatable, high-quality delivery and provides the parent structure for reusable templates by project type. PMs ensure consistency, accountability, utilization discipline, and delivery precision across all project work.

You will:
Project Leadership and Planning

  • Maintain a consistent project delivery framework. Maintain reusable templates by project type that support scale and repeatability across Miva’s structured services
  • Define project scope, deliverables, timelines, milestones, and task dependencies. All elements must align with the approved SOW or standardized service offering
  • Develop detailed project plans in Wrike. Plans should include work breakdown structures, task ownership, phase timing, and milestone tracking
  • Lead cross-functional planning sessions for large engagements. These sessions are used to ensure shared understanding and alignment before execution
  • Partner with the Traffic Manager to ensure clean project intake and accurate Wrike setup. Confirm that resource availability supports delivery feasibility

Resource and Change Management

  • Actively manage delivery resource schedules in Wrike. Ensure all assignments reflect accurate milestone and task ownership
  • Align task schedules with delivery resources based on resourcing targets, Wrike availability, and project pacing

  • Develop and execute a stakeholder communication plan. Include meeting cadence, update timing, and escalation paths
  • Coordinate client training sessions with the Training and Consulting Specialist. Use either the public training calendar or private delivery outlined in the SOW
  • Confirm mutual expectations with the client at every phase. This reduces ambiguity and surfaces potential blockers before they impact delivery

Quality Assurance and Compliance

  • Maintain Wrike project accuracy. This includes complete task structures, timelines, ownership assignments, and logical dependencies

Performance Monitoring and Continuous Improvement

  • Maintain accurate status and percent complete for all in-flight projects in Wrike. Review regularly to confirm reliability
  • Track project indicators. This includes age, schedule adherence, and status variance for early detection of risk
  • Conduct post-project reviews. Use lessons learned to support continuous improvement and delivery model optimization
  • Participate in delivery team initiatives to improve velocity, repeatability, and customer outcomes
  • Track time accurately in MiTime. Contribute to role-level utilization reporting and performance visibility
