Job Description

About the Role

ABM is seeking a highly disciplined, execution-driven Senior Project Manager to lead enterprise technology initiatives in a hybrid delivery environment.

Our governance model operates in a structured, waterfall framework. Our development teams often execute using Agile methodologies. This role requires a project leader who can confidently manage both — driving enterprise-level planning, financial discipline, and executive transparency while partnering effectively with Agile delivery teams.

The ideal candidate is structured, detail-oriented, proactive, and deeply accountable for outcomes. Strong performers in either waterfall or Agile environments who demonstrate learning agility and disciplined execution will be considered.

What You Will Own

End-to-End Project Accountability

• Own delivery of complex IT initiatives from initiation through closure

• Develop detailed, executable project plans with clear milestones, dependencies, financial tracking, and risk mitigation strategies

• Ensure alignment between business objectives, technical execution, and enterprise governance standards

Hybrid Delivery Leadership

• Operate within waterfall governance while coordinating closely with Agile development teams

• Translate sprint-level execution into accurate enterprise-level forecasts and reporting

• Ensure Agile delivery progress aligns with overall project timelines and funding commitments

• Proactively manage cross-team dependencies across business, infrastructure, security, data, and development workstreams

Risk, Discipline & Transparency

• Maintain rigorous and current RAID logs, financial tracking, and status reporting

• Surface risks early with clear mitigation paths and decision requirements

• Drive structured change control when scope, timelines, or budgets shift

• Eliminate surprises through proactive communication and disciplined oversight

AI & Emerging Technology Initiatives

• Lead or support initiatives involving AI, automation, analytics, and data platforms

• Demonstrate curiosity and initiative in understanding AI-driven delivery considerations (data readiness, model iteration, evolving requirements)

• Adapt planning approaches to support initiatives where experimentation and structured governance must coexist

What Success Looks Like

• Projects delivered with predictability and minimal executive escalations

• Clear, accurate reporting trusted by leadership

• Early identification and mitigation of delivery risks

• Strong alignment between Agile sprint progress and enterprise milestones

• Stakeholders who feel informed, supported, and confident in execution

Experience & Capabilities

• 6–10 years leading enterprise IT projects in complex environments

• Experience delivering projects using waterfall, Agile, or hybrid approaches; exposure to both strongly preferred

• Demonstrated ability to manage hybrid environments where governance is structured and development is iterative

• Strong expertise in schedule management, financial tracking, and dependency management

• Exceptional organizational discipline and attention to detail

• Proven ability to influence cross-functional teams without direct authority

• Strong written and executive-level communication skills

• Experience supporting AI, automation, analytics, or data-driven initiatives preferred

• Demonstrated learning agility and interest in emerging technologies

Candidates with deep strength in either waterfall or Agile delivery who demonstrate strong execution discipline and readiness to operate in a hybrid model will be considered.

Certifications (Preferred)

• PMP preferred but not required

• Agile certifications (e.g., Scrum Master, SAFe, PMI-ACP) a plus

Who Will Thrive in This Role

• Structured, proactive problem-solvers

• Project managers who take personal ownership of outcomes

• Leaders who surface issues early rather than manage optics

• Professionals who value clarity, documentation, and accountability

Who May Struggle

• PMs who rely heavily on others to drive execution

• Individuals uncomfortable operating with both structure and ambiguity

• Those who prefer methodology theory over delivery outcomes
