We are seeking an experienced Project Manager for a 6-month contract position with the potential for conversion to a permanent role. This hybrid role requires 3 days onsite and an immediate start. The ideal candidate will have 5-10 years of project management experience, including global exposure (LATAM, EMEA, NA) and a background in financial systems such as Oracle EBS or SAP. Experience with both Waterfall and Agile methodologies is essential, and while PMP certification is a plus, it is not required.
The role involves managing the full project lifecycle, engaging with C-level executives, and functioning as an independent contributor who can ramp up quickly. The successful candidate will be proactive, able to take ownership of tasks, and lead meetings autonomously. Initial interviews will be conducted in person, followed by a second round via Zoom or phone. If you are ready for an immediate start and meet these qualifications, we look forward to hearing from you.
