Sr. Project Manager ~ Business Critical Projects for News Distribution Leader
Attention all great Project Managers! PR Newswire has an opening that is sure to grab your interest. We are looking for a talented and experienced Senior PM to take on the management of some high profile projects and possibly other PMs as well. In this high profile and critical role, you will live in both our technology and business worlds, driving the process and ensuring results. You will have access to numerous departments within our organization and will be working with team members locally and internationally. The projects (as well as those that you will tackle in the future) are defined within PR Newswire as strategically important and high-value, and you will be responsible for the complete project lifecycle all the way through to delivery. Seize the opportunity to make your mark and solidify the project management process for a successful organization with a worldwide presence!
Now in its 54th year, PR Newswire Association LLC (www.prnewswire.com) provides electronic distribution, targeting, measurement, translation and broadcast services on behalf of tens of thousands of corporate, government, association, labor, non-profit, and other customers worldwide. Using PR Newswire, these organizations reach a variety of critical audiences including the news media, the investment community, government decision-makers, and the general public with their up-to-the-minute, full-text news developments. PR Newswire has offices in 11 countries and routinely sends its customers' news to outlets in 135 countries and in 40 languages. Utilizing the latest in communications technology, PR Newswire content is considered a mainstay among news reporters, investors and individuals who seek breaking news from the source. We offer employees a comprehensive array of generous benefits, including medical, dental, and vision care, paid time off, 401(k), employee discounts, tuition reimbursement, and more! PR Newswire is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
As a Project Manager for PR Newswire, based in our Jersey City, NJ offices, your primary task will be to manage high-value, strategic projects from inception through to delivery. PMP, or even better PRINCE2, certification will shed light on the way we operate, as our methodologies follow these models. We are looking for someone who has done this before and can hit the ground running at full speed, so your experience managing challenging technical and non-technical projects for dynamic, multi-national organizations will be put to the test. Your role will cover the gamut of traditional PM responsibilities -- time tracking and resource allocation; negotiation and communication; budget, ROI, and most importantly risk -- with which you should already have significant experience thereby providing you a solid foundation. Your ability to converse with colleagues and management at all levels, both verbally and in writing, will be hugely important to your success and your experience in departmental management or managing other PMs will be very advantageous. Our PMO sits inside our technology department, so you will have to know your technology and your business as you interface with development and engineering as well as finance and business stakeholders. For the established Project Manager looking for a new challenge, this role has it all!
