Senior Program Manager

Senior-Level Program Managers

Enterprise Project Governance is seeking two senior-level program managers to develop, pilot, and implement a Project Quality Review Program supporting Major Projects and Programs. These resources will partner with EPG personnel to establish a repeatable quality assessment process that evaluates project and program management deliverables prior to GRB reviews.

The effort will initially focus on Board-level projects and programs ($250M> EAC) before expanding across the broader Major Projects portfolio. The selected resources will evaluate project documentation against project management standards, validate the effectiveness of existing review criteria and scoring methodologies, identify gaps in project management/controls deliverables, and recommend improvements to governance readiness and overall project execution quality.
