Job Description: Sr. Project Manager
About The Company:
MustardSeed PMO designs and delivers project management solutions for complex, regulated sectors. We build PMOs, plan, staff, and run projects and programs, and provide seasoned project managers on demand.
We’re known for fast, structured onboarding that plugs in quickly and builds momentum. Our frameworks improve communication, control, and execution to drive better decisions and measurable results.
We support clients across life sciences, aerospace, food, tech, and financial services aligning PM discipline to each organization’s stage.
About the Role:
As a Sr. Project Manager at MustardSeed, you will be contributing to end-to-end project delivery within specified timeframes, budgets, and quality standards. As an experienced project manager already, you will collaborate closely with stakeholders to ensure the best possible outcomes, steering multidisciplinary teams towards common goals.
The Sr. Project Manager is the chief “make sure it happens – and happens right” person on the project and has the overall responsibility for ensuring that the outputs from each project phase – the initiation, planning, execution and closing phases – are delivered according to the requirements established and approved for that phase, and that these outputs are consistent across all phases.
You will contribute to a wide variety of different projects while maintaining a focus on project management best practices and stakeholder satisfaction.
Previous projects our team has facilitated include but are not limited to creating a robust integrated master schedule (IMS) for an upcoming clinical trial, identifying, and eliminating bottlenecks in a new product introduction (NPI) process, completing a transformative overhaul of a client’s product lifecycle management (PLM) process, ensuring the successful delivery of a newly acquired software, overhauling a client’s supply chain management (SCM) practices.
