Working at a global company going through a huge transformation period system there is a need for a Senior level Project Manager with strong experience in scoping, senior level exec engagement and ability to translate AI concepts into a SAFe aligned roadmap.

You will join a newly assembled team of a SA, BA and PM help shape and scope several AI initiatives alongside existing transformation work. Partnering with Technology, Product and Data Science, you’ll provide critical thinking, cross discipline team leadership and exec level engagement.  If initiatives demonstrate clear value and receive approval, the engagement may extend to support delivery.
