The Technical Project Manager (TPM) is responsible for planning, coordinating, and delivering technical projects on time, within scope, and within budget. This role serves as the bridge between internal technical teams and client stakeholders to ensure clear communication, strong execution, and high customer satisfaction.
The TPM will manage multiple concurrent projects such as infrastructure upgrades, Microsoft 365 migrations, security initiatives, onboarding/offboarding, network changes, and other managed service deliverables.
In addition to project delivery, the TPM will support pre-sales efforts for new clients and help identify adjacent service opportunities during project execution. This includes participating in discovery calls, assisting with scoping and Statements of Work (SOWs), and partnering with sales and technical leadership to ensure smooth handoffs from sales to delivery. The TPM plays a key role in driving consistent project execution while supporting client growth through proactive planning and solution alignment.
