  • Monitor project progress, identify risks and issues, and implement mitigation strategies to keep the project on track and within budget.
  • Communicate project status, updates, and key milestones to stakeholders, including senior management, steering committees, and project teams.
  • Ensure compliance with project management methodologies, best practices, and regulatory requirements throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Evaluate project outcomes, lessons learned, and areas for improvement, and implement continuous process enhancements to optimize future project delivery.
  • Proven experience as an IT Project Manager, preferably with a focus on finance system migrations and Microsoft 365.
  • Strong project management skills, including the ability to develop project plans, manage budgets, and deliver projects on time and within scope.
  • Knowledge of finance systems, ERP platforms, and related technologies, with experience in system migrations or implementations.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft 365 suite, including SharePoint, Teams, OneDrive, and Exchange, with experience in migration projects involving these technologies.
  • Excellent communication, interpersonal, and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to effectively engage and influence stakeholders at all levels.
  • Project management certification (e.g., PMP, PRINCE2) is a plus.
