IT Enterprise And Infrastructure Project Manager

Job Description

The IT department is navigating a period of significant transformation, with over 42 projects slated for the next three quarters, 26 active projects a number that will increase further with the two scheduled acquisitions. While IT consistently delivers high-quality results, the current project management structure requires enhancement to maintain efficiency and ensure continued success. Here’s why adding another Project Manager is a strategic, forward-thinking investment:

Addressing The Loss Of External Resource

• The DealHub external Project Manager resource is transitioning out, which creates an opportunity to bring the function in-house for greater control and stability.
• High-impact initiatives like DealHub are critical to business operations, and ensuring proper oversight is key to their success.
• Currently, Tiffany is dedicating over 15 hours weekly to manage DealHub, which illustrates the demand for specialized project management attention.
• Adding a Project Manager eliminates potential gaps and delays while ensuring priority initiatives remain on track.
  
  

Mitigating Project Risks

• With over 40 active projects, a single Project Manager handling 14 major initiatives can lead to potential bottlenecks or capacity strains over time.
• A second Project Manager enables a more balanced allocation of resources, helping maintain project timelines, coordination, and quality expectations.
• Given the scale of upcoming projects, proactive adjustment to the project management framework ensures deliverables continue to meet or exceed expectations.
  
  

Enhancing Collaboration And Focus

• Project Managers specialize in driving accountability, communication, and cross-team alignment, which are essential for delivering complex projects successfully and efficiently.
• A distributed approach where some managers self-manage their projects is working well so far; however, scaling this model during growth phases may pose challenges.
• Adding a Project Manager prevents key priorities from being overshadowed or misaligned, ensuring all projects benefit from consistent leadership and oversight.
  
  

Supporting Leadership To Foster Innovation

• IT leadership plays a key role in areas such as solution architecture, strategy development, mentorship, and team building, contributing to business growth and innovation.
• Shifting project oversight responsibilities from technical leadership to professional resource management allows managers to focus on efforts that add significant value.
• The time reclaimed from this transition can be dedicated to enhancing processes and driving organizational improvements, while ensuring the team stays aligned with strategic and technical goals.
