One of our firm’s clients is seeking a seasoned project leader to partner directly with the CIO and IT leadership team on high-impact enterprise technology initiatives.

• Project plans, timelines, risks, dependencies, and deliverables
• Coordination across IT, business teams, vendors, and consultants
• Program governance, executive reporting, and execution discipline
• Stakeholder workshops, working sessions, and requirements activities
• Vendor performance, accountability, and delivery quality

You could be a strong fit if you bring:

• 10+ years of IT project or program management experience
• A proven record of delivering enterprise-scale technology initiatives
• Confidence partnering with CIOs and senior executive stakeholders
• Exceptional communication, judgment, and executive presence
• The ability to turn complex technical topics into clear business updates

Experience within a law firm or professional-services environment is highly valued. Exposure to applications, platforms, integrations, process improvement, data, analytics, or AI programs is also a plus.
