The Opportunity:
The Project Manager owns the delivery of an enterprise-scale Euna Grants implementation for a state government client. This is a client-facing role with real accountability - you manage the project plan, the risks, the stakeholder relationships, and the day-to-day coordination across an internal cross-functional team. You are the person the client calls, and the person who knows where the project actually stands.
ECP Project Managers are assigned to a state portfolio - meaning your work has a geography and a set of agency relationships you know deeply. You operate within the governance and standards framework set by the Portfolio Manager and PMO Lead, and you work closely with Implementation Managers, Technical Solutions Specialists, and OCM to drive outcomes for your clients.
Key Responsibilities:
Project Delivery & Governance
- Lead enterprise-level Euna Grants implementation projects from initiation through closure, maintaining clear ownership of scope, schedule, budget, and quality.
- Develop and maintain project charters, schedules, risk registers, RAID logs, and decision registers in alignment with ECP standards and state agency governance requirements.
- Facilitate project meetings, executive briefings, and steering committees with state-level sponsors and decision-makers.
- Monitor project performance against established baselines - identify risks and issues early, drive mitigation, and escalate to the Portfolio Manager when warranted.
- Ensure all project activities comply with Euna's Code of Ethics, security standards, and applicable public sector regulations.
- Apply ECP's delivery frameworks and methodology consistently across your engagement - adapting where needed without abandoning standards.
Client Engagement & Stakeholder Management
- Serve as the primary point of contact for your assigned state agency clients - building trust, managing expectations, and maintaining transparency throughout the project lifecycle.
- Partner with customer project managers and agency leads to establish shared milestones, delivery responsibilities, and readiness activities.
- Conduct executive-level reporting for client steering committees and provide regular status updates that are accurate, clear, and stakeholder-appropriate.
- Navigate complex multi-agency relationships with professionalism - you can hold a difficult conversation without damaging the partnership.
Cross-Functional Coordination
- Coordinate delivery across ECP's Implementation, Technical Solutions, and OCM workstreams - keeping shared timelines, dependencies, and risks visible to the right people.
- Partner with the Project Coordinator to maintain documentation accuracy, meeting cadences, and action item follow-through.
- Contribute to lessons-learned reviews and continuous improvement efforts - flagging patterns or gaps that the PMO Lead or Portfolio Manager should know about.
- Participate in scoping conversations for new engagements when PM input on your state's portfolio or related work is helpful; review SOW commitments that affect your projects before they are finalized.
Team & Internal Contribution
- Play a meaningful role in onboarding new hires and contributing to team knowledge-sharing.
- Actively adopt and embed AI tools into your daily work - whether drafting documentation, accelerating analysis, preparing for client meetings, or identifying workflow improvements. We want someone who is excited by this, not just willing.
- Perform other job-related duties as assigned.
Minimum Qualifications:
- BA/BS degree or equivalent work experience.
- 5+ years of project management experience, with a demonstrated track record of delivering enterprise software implementation or technology projects.
- Experience managing multi-stakeholder projects in a public sector, government, or regulated industry environment.
- Proficiency with project management tools and methodologies - Jira, Confluence, Smartsheet, or similar; waterfall, agile, or hybrid delivery frameworks.
- Enthusiasm for AI tools and a track record of embedding technology into daily workflows to improve output quality or efficiency. We are not looking for a passive user - we want someone who seeks out opportunities.
- Strong communication skills - you can run a steering committee, write a crisp status update, and deliver hard news to a client without losing the relationship.
- Ability to manage multiple complex projects and competing deadlines simultaneously.
- Ability to work independently while remaining a reliable, collaborative member of a broader team.
- Comfortable in a fast-paced, evolving environment; adaptable and professionally resilient.
- Strong attention to detail; organized and consistent in follow-through.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Direct experience delivering state or federal government technology implementations.
- PMP or equivalent certification.
- Knowledge of grants management, public finance, or compliance-heavy regulatory environments.
- Experience with Euna Grants or comparable grant management systems.
- Exposure to AI productivity tools (e.g., Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT) with demonstrated application in a professional context.
- Familiarity with change management principles and how OCM integrates into enterprise delivery.
