Job description

Project Manager

Are you the person who steps into chaos and turns it into execution? Do you thrive in fast-moving environments where priorities shift, expectations are high, and outcomes matter more than process?

Our continued growth has created the need for a Project Manager to join our team.

This role is built for experienced project leaders who can operate at a high level, owning delivery, driving accountability, and helping shape how projects get executed across the organization.

This is not a sit-back-and-coordinate role. You'll own a high volume of projects, drive execution across teams, and step in when things go off track. You are expected to operate as a leader, not just a project manager.

Some of the areas you'll be responsible for include:

• Business process improvement initiatives
• Operational and organizational projects
• Strategic growth initiatives
• Cross-functional programs and process implementations
• Company-wide initiatives that impact multiple departments

You don't need to be a subject matter expert in every area (we've got those). But you do need to be someone who can lead, connect the dots, and drive results across diverse teams.

This position is onsite at our Pewaukee, WI HQ.

If this is your next gig, you'll need to:

• Manage and drive execution across multiple concurrent projects
• Own delivery from kickoff through completion, including timelines, scope, budgets, and outcomes
• Lead cross-functional teams and hold resources accountable to commitments
• Communicate clearly and confidently with internal teams and senior leadership
• Operate effectively in environments where priorities, processes, and tools are evolving
• Make decisions, remove blockers, and keep projects moving without perfect information
• Help with resource planning, prioritization, and capacity management
• Identify and implement improvements in how projects are delivered (builder mindset required)
• Step in, escape, and "break glass" when projects are off track
• Influence stakeholders and manage expectations, even at senior levels
• Track risks, dependencies, and project health while driving teams toward successful outcomes

What we're looking for:

• 5-10+ years of project management experience
• Proven track record of delivering results in complex, fast-paced environments
• Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to operate under ambiguity
• Strong organizational, planning, and execution capabilities
• Ability to manage and prioritize a high volume of concurrent work without losing control
• Strong leadership presence and confidence working with senior stakeholders
• Self-motivated, organized, and accountable with an ownership mindset
• Exceptional communication, relationship-building, and facilitation skills

Bonus points if you:

• Have experience improving PMO processes, tools, or delivery frameworks
• Have helped scale teams, organizations, or business operations
• Bring an entrepreneurial or "builder" mindset
• Have experience in consulting, professional services, or client-facing environments
• Hold a PMP, CAPM, Agile, Scrum, or related project management certification

Is this you?
