Rate: 62/hr

Location: Onsite in Austin, TX (78750)

6+ Months (Expected to Extend)


Summary

We are seeking a results-driven Project Manager to lead the execution of a high-impact Product Profitability Initiative. This is a non-IT project management role focused on transforming manual, Excel-based financial reporting processes into a scalable, system-driven model. You will orchestrate cross-functional teams in Finance, Accounting, and Enterprise Data to deliver sustainable improvements in reporting, data quality, and process efficiency.

Key Responsibilities

· Lead Project Execution: Plan, direct, and coordinate project activities, ensuring deliverables are met on time and on budget.

· Drive Accountability: Relentlessly follow up with stakeholders, maintain a clear tracker of actions, deadlines, and blockers, and escalate as needed to ensure momentum.

· Facilitate Cross-Functional Collaboration: Serve as the point person connecting Finance, Accounting, and Data teams. Unify efforts across diverse stakeholders, aligning priorities and ensuring business buy-in.

· Status & Communication: Deliver clear, concise project updates to the project sponsor and team leads. Translate meeting outcomes and complex project issues into actionable steps for all.

· Optimize Processes: Work with subject matter experts to map, document, and improve workflows—moving from manual spreadsheet-based reporting to robust, system-driven solutions (Anaplan, NetSuite, Snowflake, Power BI).

· Support Change Management: Champion new processes and reporting structures, reinforcing unified adoption and helping resolve resistance or misalignment.

· Documentation: Ensure comprehensive project documentation and process guides are developed to support continuity and future enhancements.

Required Skills and Qualifications:

· Project Leadership: Proven success delivering cross-functional business/process transformation projects, ideally in Finance, FP&A, or Data Analytics environments.

· Stakeholder Management: Strong interpersonal and communication skills; able to hold teams accountable, resolve conflicts, and drive consensus.

· Systems & Data Acumen: Comfortable working alongside teams using Anaplan, NetSuite, Snowflake, and Power BI. Able to “speak the language” of data and process, even if not building technical solutions.

· Change Management: Demonstrated ability to manage change, influence others, and foster adoption of new processes.

· Organization & Diligence: Detail-oriented with exceptional follow-through, time management, and ability to manage multiple priorities.

· Communication: Excellent verbal and written communication skills. Able to distill complex issues and present updates with clarity.

· Technical Tools: Proficient with standard project management and office tools (MS Project, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.).

Preferred Qualifications:

· Experience managing product profitability, financial reporting, or data/process improvement projects.

· Familiarity with platforms like Mavenlink, JIRA, Salesforce, or Jellyfish.

· Prior consulting or contract experience in a similar environment.

· PMI or PMP certification preferred.

Education and Experience:

· Bachelor’s degree in business administration, Finance, Accounting, Data Analytics, or related field.

· 8–10 years of relevant project management experience.
