Contract-to-Hire (6 months) | Remote (candidates should reside in Charlotte, NC or surrounding areas)

Our client is a marketing data, services, and technology company that helps clients achieve measurable business outcomes — increased revenue, reduced costs, and greater operational efficiency. We are known for our exceptional client experience, reflected in our world‑class Net Promoter Score, and for solving complex problems with data, technology, and creativity. As Bridgetree continues to scale and take on increasingly complex technology initiatives, we are raising the bar for how projects are delivered.

Our client seeks a hands‑on Senior Technical Project Manager to serve as a delivery owner for critical client initiatives. This role represents a meaningful evolution in how project management works. Historically, PMs with our client have focused on reporting progress. This role is different.

This Project Manager is accountable for outcomes. You will own projects end‑to‑end — from requirements and estimates through delivery, release, and financial performance. You will be expected to lead actively, make informed recommendations, drive clarity where it does not exist, and ensure projects are delivered on time, on budget, and to a high standard of quality. This is a “gold standard” PM role.

You will help define how project management is done and influence standards that other PMs adopt over time.

A successful Project Manager:

• Delivers complex technology projects predictably and profitably
• Prevents downstream issues through strong upfront discovery and requirements
• Actively leads clients and internal teams rather than coordinating passively
• Earns increasing decision‑making autonomy through sound judgment
• Reduces leadership involvement by owning delivery details and outcomes
• Raises the bar for project management practices across the organization

• Own the successful delivery of mid‑to‑large scale technology projects from initiation through completion
• Serve as the primary point of accountability for scope, timeline, budget, and quality
• Lead client stakeholders with confidence, including setting expectations and pushing back when clarity or scope discipline is required
• Proactively identify risks and issues and drive resolution — no surprises
• Lead discovery and requirements gathering with clients, architects, and technical teams
• Translate business needs into clear, actionable requirements and user stories
• Partner with architecture and engineering to develop realistic estimates and delivery plans
• Take accountability for the quality of requirements and the accuracy of estimates

• Build and manage detailed project plans across discovery, design, build, test, and release phases
• Actively manage resources, dependencies, risks, and milestones
• Lead stand‑ups, working sessions, and milestone reviews
• Coordinate across onshore, nearshore, and offshore teams as needed

• Manage technology‑driven initiatives including:
• Web and application development (.NET)
• API and system integrations
• Data flows and transformations
• Cloud and platform implementations (e.g., Azure)
• Facilitate effective communication between business stakeholders and technical teams
• Ensure the right solution is being built — not just that work is getting done
• Vendor transitions and platform replacements

• Partner with QA to plan and execute testing and UAT
• Coordinate production releases and client sign‑off
• Manage project financials including budget tracking, burn rate, forecasting, and invoicing
• Provide clear, concise project health updates to leadership
• Contribute to standardization across projects and PMs
• Leverage AI tools extensively to improve planning, documentation, communication, and delivery efficiency
• Support the evolution of AI‑enabled project management workflows over time
