This is an exciting opportunity for an accomplished IT Project Manager who thrives on leading complex initiatives, collaborating with executive leadership, and driving enterprise-wide technology implementations.
The Opportunity
You'll play a critical leadership role in a large-scale financial systems modernization initiative, replacing legacy enterprise platforms and integrating a new ERP solution across a complex technology environment.

What We're Looking For
- 7+ years of progressive IT project management experience, including leadership of complex enterprise-wide initiatives.
- Demonstrated success personally leading major ERP, enterprise application, or similarly complex technology implementations.
- Strong project management discipline, including project planning, governance, risk management, dependency tracking, and executive communications.
- Experience coordinating cross-functional teams involving software development, infrastructure, data, analytics, finance, and third-party vendors.
- Working knowledge of Agile/Scrum, Waterfall, and hybrid delivery methodologies.
- Ability to understand technical integrations, architectural dependencies, and business-critical systems.
- Strong executive presence, communication skills, and the ability to influence stakeholders at all organizational levels.
- PMP certification strongly preferred.
Especially Valuable Experience
- Financial systems or enterprise ERP implementations involving SAP, Oracle, Workday, Lawson, or similar platforms.
- Experience supporting major financial transformation initiatives.
- Leading high-stakes projects with complex integrations and significant organizational impact.
- Healthcare or similarly complex enterprise environments.
Why Consider This Opportunity?
You'll join an established IT organization with experienced leadership, a collaborative culture, and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on a significant enterprise transformation.
This is a highly visible position offering long-term career growth and the opportunity to work closely with senior technology and business leadership.
Location: Knoxville, Tennessee, strongly preferred. Qualified regional candidates who can accommodate meaningful onsite collaboration will also be considered.
