Job Description

Reporting to the Senior Manager, Information Technology Project Management, this role sits at the intersection of technology delivery, organizational change, and continuous improvement. You won't just be managing timelines and budgets. You'll lead complex, cross-functional initiatives across Carlisle's enterprise IT portfolio, including SAP/ERP implementations and upgrades, digital customer experience platforms, infrastructure initiatives, systems integrations, data and analytics solutions, and broader business transformation programs.

The strongest candidates bring more than technical project management expertise. They understand that successful technology implementation also requires bringing people, processes, and teams along through change. You'll help guide stakeholders through ambiguity, drive adoption beyond go-live, and continuously improve how work gets done using Carlisle Operating System (COS) principles and other continuous improvement methodologies.

You'll manage projects through every phase, including intake, planning, execution, testing, deployment, cutover, and post-go-live stabilization, while balancing scope, schedule, budget, quality, risk, and stakeholder expectations. You'll also partner closely with Organizational Change Management and business leadership to support communication, training, stakeholder engagement, readiness, and adoption throughout the project lifecycle.

This role may also serve as lead project manager or program manager for large-scale, multi-site, or strategically critical initiatives, with visibility to both IT and business leadership.

What You’ll Do

• Own the “last mile” of project delivery by facilitating cutovers, post-go-live stabilization, and post-implementation reviews to help ensure technical solutions translate into sustainable business outcomes.
• Partner with Organizational Change Management and business leadership on communication, training, stakeholder engagement, readiness, and adoption activities.
• Facilitate productive working sessions, workshops, discovery meetings, testing activities, and project reviews that build alignment and buy-in across technical and business teams.
• Lead end-to-end delivery of IT projects and programs using Carlisle IT PMO methodologies, governance standards, and the Carlisle Operating System (COS).
• Define project scope, objectives, timelines, success criteria, and business outcomes in partnership with business and IT leadership.
• Manage multiple concurrent projects of varying size, complexity, and delivery methodology, including Agile, Waterfall, and Hybrid approaches, while adapting as business priorities evolve.
• Proactively identify, assess, and manage project risks, issues, dependencies, and resource constraints, including actionable mitigation and contingency plans.
• Drive accountability across cross-functional teams to keep milestones, deliverables, and commitments on time and within scope and budget.
• Develop and maintain project plans, RAID logs, status reporting, financial tracking, and documentation within established PMO standards and tools, including ServiceNow SPM.
• Partner with IT leaders, business stakeholders, consultants, and vendors to coordinate activities and maintain alignment with strategic priorities and operational readiness.
• Support portfolio planning and project intake activities, including estimation, sequencing, prioritization, business case development, and resource planning.
• Apply COS and continuous improvement principles to identify root causes, improve processes, eliminate inefficiencies, and strengthen project and operational outcomes.
• Develop and deliver clear, professional communications, presentations, and executive-level reporting tailored to technical and non-technical audiences.
• Continuously identify opportunities to improve project delivery, reporting, governance, and operational efficiency within the PMO.
• Coach and advise team leads and individuals across the organization on project management principles and practices.
• Other duties as assigned.
