What you'll do and how you'll have an impact
- Support delivery of AppDirect's enterprise and platform engagements by maintaining project plans, schedules, budgets, and expenditure tracking.
- Own end-to-end project coordination on smaller initiatives, and assist a senior Project Manager on complex, high-visibility engagements.
- Organize and attend stakeholder meetings, document minutes and action items, and follow up to ensure commitments are met.
- Prepare and maintain presentation materials, project calendars, and status reports that keep all stakeholders aligned.
- Coordinate change management and risk management activities, escalating issues to the senior PM when needed.
- Support quality assurance activities to ensure projects adhere to established frameworks and documentation standards.
What we're looking for
- 1–2 years of experience in project coordination or project management within a technology or professional services environment.
- Technical affinity and comfort with IT concepts.
- Familiarity with project management tools (e.g., Jira or equivalent).
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English to effectively collaborate across internal teams and external stakeholders.
- Strong structured mindset with a proven ability to bring organization, clarity, and structure to complex or virtual environments.
- Critical thinking abilities to proactively evaluate project risks, solve problems, and streamline workflows.
- Familiarity with project management tools (e.g., Jira or equivalent).
- PMI certification (CAPM or PMP) is an asset.
