We are seeking an experienced, hands-on Senior Project Manager / Deputy Program Manager to support the implementation and delivery of a complex enterprise administration platform. This individual will help drive day-to-day program execution, coordinate work across multiple teams, and ensure functional requirements are successfully translated into system capabilities.

The ideal candidate combines strong project management leadership with practical experience implementing or supporting policy, claims, billing, pension, benefits, or similar enterprise administrative systems. This position requires someone who is comfortable managing details, resolving dependencies, and stepping in wherever needed to keep the program moving forward.

This is an active project leadership position—not solely a reporting or administrative role. The successful candidate will work directly with business, technical, QA, training, conversion, customer, partner, and advisory teams to coordinate execution, resolve obstacles, and keep delivery moving.

Approximately one week of travel per month is required.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities

• Support the Program Manager in the daily execution of assigned Mcare program areas.
• Keep assigned workstreams organized, moving, and aligned with the overall program schedule.
• Work directly with team members and workstream leads to clarify priorities, remove blockers, connect the appropriate stakeholders, and move issues from discussion to action.
• Manage the implementation of approved functional requirements from planning through development or configuration, testing, review, and completion.
• Coordinate handoffs and dependencies among business, technical, QA, training, conversion, customer, partner, and advisory teams.
• Maintain visibility into milestones, dependencies, risks, issues, open decisions, readiness activities, customer reviews, and program deliverables.
• Track evidence of completion and provide project documentation needed to support deliverable and invoice reviews.
• Prepare and maintain project artifacts, including status reports, action trackers, decision logs, RAID updates, workstream plans, schedules, and governance materials.
• Facilitate project meetings, working sessions, status reviews, and stakeholder discussions.
• Prepare updates for customer and internal leadership meetings.
• Document decisions, assign and track follow-up actions, and escalate issues with clear context and recommended next steps.
• Reinforce a collaborative, accountable, and consistent operating rhythm across program teams.
• Apply practical project management processes that support delivery and governance without introducing unnecessary administrative overhead.
• Support additional organizational initiatives as needed, including RFI and RFP responses, customer demonstrations, internal project management improvements, and coordination or configuration activities involving new products, features, or capabilities.
