The Sr. PM will oversee the IS PMOâs most complex projects, which will likely involve a diverse set of components, including healthcare processes, clinical applications & interfaces, business / administrative applications & interfaces, enabling / supporting technology and infrastructure (e.g., hardware, devices, telecom, storage solutions). ⢠The successful Sr. PM must be proficient in managing the complexities associated with large, enterprise-wide strategic initiatives, and be able to communicate effectively with executive-level personnel, verbally and in writing. The successful Sr. PM will exhibit strong project planning abilities â and have robust prior experience justifying and planning projects, to include defining and baselining project scopes (via charters, scope statements, work breakdown structures, statements of work), schedules, budgets and resource allocations.
