Job Description:

Required Qualifications:

  • 4–7 years of project management experience, ideally within IT or a technology-adjacent function.
  • Demonstrated fluency with Jira and Confluence (board setup, workflows, dashboards, reporting) - not just user-level familiarity.
  • Proven track record managing multiple concurrent projects with competing priorities and deadlines.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with experience presenting to senior business leaders - clear, direct, and free of vague commitments.
  • Comfortable engaging with IT concepts and terminology (systems, integrations, data flows) without needing to be a hands-on engineer.

  • Experience with pricing, distribution, or ERP-adjacent business projects.
  • Background supporting manufacturing or distribution business units.
  • PMP, CAPM, or equivalent PM certification.
  • Prior experience in a PMO structure with standardized governance practices.
  • Exposure to legacy/older systems (e.g., AS400) is a plus - comfort navigating antiquated tech stacks alongside modern tools.

Core Competencies:

  • Intellectual Curiosity - asks questions, digs into the "why," and leans into learning rather than waiting for direction; comfortable operating in a space that will require ongoing discovery.
  • Managing Ambiguity - understands that plans are a best guess, not a guarantee; adapts as new information surfaces and keeps momentum through unexpected obstacles.
  • Balancing Stakeholders - juggles competing priorities across IT, the broader AMH portfolio, and the Alside business without losing sight of any one group's needs.
  • Courage - surfaces bad news early and directly rather than only logging it; comfortable pausing or escalating activity that feels off, even when it's uncomfortable to raise.
  • Success Metrics - First 90 Days
  • Fully onboarded onto the Alside pricing project with an established project plan, timeline, and Jira board.
  • Running regular, structured status updates for both IT leadership and Alside business stakeholders.
  • Demonstrated ability to take on a second concurrent project without disruption to the first

Responsibilities:

Overview:
The client is seeking a mid-level Project Manager to support IT-focused initiatives for the Alside business unit, starting with a new pricing project for US Distribution. This individual will report to the IT PMO and will manage this project end-to-end while also picking up additional Alside-related IT projects as they arise. The ideal candidate is comfortable working across business and technical stakeholders, has strong command of Jira/Confluence-based project tracking, and can juggle multiple concurrent workstreams without losing sight of deadlines, dependencies, or communication cadence.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Own end-to-end project management for the Alside US Distribution pricing project: scope, timeline, resourcing, risk, and status reporting.
  • Manage additional Alside-related IT projects concurrently as they are assigned, prioritizing and sequencing work across a shifting portfolio.
  • Set up and maintain project boards, workflows, and documentation in Jira/Confluence, consistent with existing AMI IT PMO standards.
  • Run regular status meetings and provide clear, structured updates to both IT leadership and business stakeholders, including senior/executive audiences.
  • Identify and escalate risks, blockers, and scope changes early; drive resolution with the right stakeholders.
  • Coordinate cross-functionally with IT applications, operations, and business teams (Alside/US Distribution) to keep projects aligned to business goals.
  • Maintain accurate project artifacts: charters, timelines, RAID logs, and status reports.
  • Lead prioritization conversations for new Alside IT project requests
