Overview

TheKey brings on a contract Project Manager to carry cross-functional projects from kickoff through close-out. You hold scope, schedule, budget, risk, and stakeholder alignment across business leaders, functional teams, and outside vendors. The work runs on Waterfall, Agile, or hybrid delivery and covers vendor onboarding, UAT and QAT test planning, plus go-live support with cutover and hypercare. Expect to run status forums, compare forecasts against actuals, and keep the project playbook and artifacts in order.

What You'll Do10

  • Set expectations with the executive sponsor, then translate those goals into schedules, milestones, dependencies, constraints, and stated assumptions.
  • Write and maintain the project plan, define scope and deliverables, and name the success criteria before work starts.
  • Run working sessions to capture, confirm, and update requirements, then tie QAT, UAT, and end-user test plans back to them.
  • Track defects through triage to resolution and hold approval gates before requirements or test plans move forward.
  • Coordinate vendor evaluation, onboarding, task tracking, RFP support, scoring, and deliverable monitoring.
  • Act as the main point of contact for stakeholders, run project meetings and decision forums, and set the governance cadence and communication channels.
  • Prepare status reports, dashboards, and executive summaries, and escalate issues to the right level when they stall.
  • Coordinate internal and external resources, and track budget, forecast, and actuals against the plan.
  • Move change requests through the approval process, keep risk and issue logs with mitigation plans, and support go-live, cutover, hypercare, and post-launch validation.
  • Lead post-project reviews, capture lessons learned, and keep the project playbook and other artifacts in good shape.

Requirements5

  • Bachelor's degree in business, management, or a similar field, or equivalent work experience.
  • 3 to 6 years of project management experience delivering initiatives that span several functions.
  • Working knowledge of Waterfall, Agile, or a hybrid delivery model.
  • Record of running multiple workstreams at once while priorities compete for attention.
  • Solid organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills.

Preferred Qualifications3

  • PMP, CAPM, PRINCE2, or an Agile certification.
  • Experience working with senior leaders and cross-functional teams.
  • Hands-on use of project management tools such as Monday or Jira.

Who Should Apply

A project manager with 3 to 6 years of cross-functional delivery experience fits this contract well. Bring a working command of Waterfall or Agile, comfort juggling several workstreams, and the communication skills to keep executives and vendors aligned.

Salary Insight

$35.00 to $45.00 per hour, paid on a contract basis. That band matches mid-level project management work and lines up with the 3 to 6 years of experience the role asks for.
