You will collaborate with and coordinate cross-functional teams from business development, field services, supply chain management, and support to impress customers with a world-class deployment process. You will own the project time and action plan, and use a project management tool to monitor progress and ensure timely completion of all deployment details. Finally, you will keep a keen eye out for improvement opportunities and work cross-functionally to iterate on our experience and implement improvements.
Our incoming coworker is self-motivated, highly organized, detail-oriented, and people-centric. It's critical that you have hands-on experience with program or project management and can immediately begin managing high-profile programs.
