Cincinnati, OH – hybrid

Our client is seeking an IT Project Manager to aid in their continued growth. This role is responsible for guiding complex initiatives from idea to completion, ensuring work moves forward with clarity, accountability, and measurable outcomes. The individual will serve as the central organizer across people, timelines, resources, and priorities, translating goals into executable plans and keeping multiple efforts moving in parallel.

The position requires a blend of structured thinking, practical coordination, and calm leadership. Success depends on the ability to align diverse contributors, manage uncertainty, and adapt plans as conditions evolve.

Rather than focusing on a single system or function, this role works across initiatives that touch multiple teams. You will define what success looks like, map the steps to get there, anticipate obstacles, and keep progress visible to everyone involved. Much of the work involves facilitating decisions, resolving conflicts, and ensuring commitments are met without losing momentum.

You will also help improve how work is delivered overall by refining templates, standards, and routines that make future initiatives easier to execute.

• Translate objectives into structured plans with clear milestones, dependencies, and ownership
• Coordinate contributors across technical and non-technical teams to ensure alignment
• Track progress, surface risks early, and adjust plans to keep outcomes on course
• Manage financial expectations by forecasting effort, monitoring spend, and controlling scope
• Facilitate working sessions, decision checkpoints, and retrospectives
• Maintain clear, consistent communication with sponsors and participants
• Ensure decisions, assumptions, and outcomes are properly documented
• Support resolution of both operational and technical issues that impact delivery
• Oversee multiple active initiatives simultaneously without loss of quality
• Contribute to the evolution of delivery standards, tools, and best practices
• Provide guidance and informal coaching to others on effective planning and execution

• Demonstrated success leading initiatives with many moving parts from start to finish
• Working knowledge of structured delivery frameworks and lifecycle phases
• Comfort engaging with both technical contributors and business stakeholders
• Ability to organize complex information into clear, actionable plans
• Strong command of common planning, documentation, and visualization tools
• High attention to detail without losing sight of overall objectives
• Proven ability to manage competing priorities under time and budget constraints
• Clear, professional written and verbal communication skills
• Strong interpersonal judgment and a service-oriented mindset
• Willingness to adapt to new tools, responsibilities, and evolving priorities
