Project Manager, Integrations The Project Manager, Integrations is a hands-on, execution-focused role responsible for the day-to-day project management of integration initiatives across Novacore's growing program portfolio. This role serves as the tactical engine of the integrations function - keeping projects moving, stakeholders aligned, and blockers surfaced before they become problems. This is a utility player role that spans M&A integrations, lift-outs, and existing program transformations, requiring the ability to context-switch quickly, operate with a high degree of independence, and take full ownership of assigned workstreams from kickoff to go-live. Ideally, this position will be located at either of our Conshohocken, PA or Dallas, TX offices. Responsibilities: Own the day-to-day execution of assigned integration projects across the full program lifecycle: Managing project execution • Build and maintain detailed project plans, timelines, RAID logs, and status trackers for assigned programs. • Run project standups, working sessions, and stakeholder check-ins - prepare agendas, capture decisions and action items, and drive follow-through. • Coordinate deliverables across internal workstreams including Operations, Legal, Technology, Finance, Actuary, and Marketing - ensuring each team understands what is needed and by when. • Maintain the master project list and portfolio tracking tools, keeping statuses current and accurate. Supporting program heads through operational readiness • Serve as the primary day-to-day contact for program heads navigating the integration process - guiding them through each workstream and making sure nothing falls through the cracks. • Manage program heads through the operational readiness checklist, tracking completion of all pre-go-live requirements and escalating gaps. • Coordinate vendor touchpoints and keep deliverables on track. • Support requirements-gathering sessions alongside the VP and system integrator partners, ensuring program teams provide timely, complete inputs. Tracking progress and surfacing blockers • Monitor project milestones and flag delays or risks early • Maintain accurate RAID logs and ensure action owners are aware and accountable. • Prepare status reports and executive updates for review by the VP of Integrations; escalate issues requiring senior-level resolution. • Track open items with external vendors and carriers, following up proactively to keep commitments on schedule. Supporting go-live readiness • Coordinate all aspects of the go live requirements for the project. • Track completion of go-live prerequisites and ensure nothing is missing at launch. • Maintain go-live checklists and sign-off documentation for each program. Contributing to the factory model • Follow established SOPs and playbooks consistently - then flag where they need to be updated based on what you see in the field. • Contribute to lessons-learned capture after each go-live or major milestone. • Act as a thought partner to the VP - bring observations, flag patterns, and suggest improvements to the integration process. Qualifications: • Bachelor's degree in Project Management, Business Administration, or related discipline. • 3-5 years of experience in project management, program coordination, or operations - ideally in an insurance or financial services environment. • Experience in an MGA, MGU, or specialty insurance environment strongly preferred. • PMP, CSM, or similar project management certification preferred; not required. • Demonstrated ability to manage multiple concurrent projects in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment. • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail • Excellent written and verbal communication skills; comfortable presenting status to leadership and navigating difficult conversations. • Proficient in project management tools (Monday.com, MS Project, Excel, or equivalent); experience maintaining dashboards and trackers. • Comfortable operating with ambiguity - you can make reasonable judgment calls and know when to escalate. What Success Looks Like- First 90 days • Projects are organized and visible - every assigned program has a current plan, RAID log, and status tracker that leadership can reference at any time. • Program heads know their point of contact - you are embedded with your assigned programs and they are moving through the operational readiness process with a clear guide. • Blockers are surfaced early - you are flagging risks and delays before they miss milestones, not after. 180 - 270 days • Programs are hitting go-live milestones - your assigned programs are completing milestones on track and launching on schedule. • Playbooks are being executed consistently - you are running programs through the factory model, not reinventing the process for each one. • You are a trusted part of the integration team - the VP of Integrations, program heads, and workstream leads see you as the person who makes things happen and keeps the machine running.
