  • Monitor project performance and compliance with quality and security standards.
  • Manage schedules, budgets, deliverables, and stakeholder expectations.
  • Oversee vendor performance and alignment with project goals.
  • Conduct lessons learned sessions and promote PMO best practices.

Mandatory Qualifications:

  • Active PMP or equivalent certification
  • Hands-on experience with mainframe to cloud (AWS) migration
  • Strong ability to communicate migration steps and planning strategy
  • 7+ years of IT Project Management experience with complex projects
  • Knowledge of mainframe operations and cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred)
  • Experience coordinating vendor-managed projects in the last 5 years
  • Proficiency in MS Office 365 applications
  • Strong executive communication and reporting skills
  • Experience working with State Government or public sector agencies
