Job Summary
The Project Manager, G&A Initiatives is responsible for leading implementation and improvement projects across the company's General & Administrative functions — Finance & Accounting, Human Resources, Legal & Compliance, and IT & Facilities. This role does not own the day-to-day operation of those functions; instead, it drives the projects that implement, upgrade, and optimize the systems and processes those functions rely on — from ERP and HRIS rollouts to contract management platforms to office moves and infrastructure upgrades. The ideal candidate is a versatile project manager who can flex across functional domains, build trust quickly with non-technical stakeholders, and bring consistent PM rigor — scope, schedule, budget, risk, and change management — to every G&A initiative on their plate
ResponsibilitiesFinance & Accounting
- Plan and manage Finance & Accounting system and process projects — ERP implementations and upgrades, close-process automation, AP/AR system rollouts, and reporting/BI initiatives — from initiation through go-live.
- Build and maintain project plans, budgets, and resource schedules for finance-related initiatives in partnership with Accounting and FP&A stakeholders.
- Coordinate testing, data migration, and cutover activities for finance system projects, including UAT sign-off with process owners.
- Track project-level risks and controls considerations, escalating issues affecting financial reporting or GxP-regulated control environment.
Human Resources
- Lead HR systems and program implementation projects — HRIS or payroll platform migrations, benefits system transitions, and performance/talent management rollouts.
- Manage project scope, timeline, and budget for HR initiatives, coordinating between HR stakeholders, IT, and outside vendors (implementation partners, brokers, PEOs).
- Drive change management and communication planning for HR project rollouts, including training coordination and adoption tracking.
Legal & Compliance
- Manage projects supporting Legal & Compliance functions — contract lifecycle management (CLM) system implementations, GRC/policy management platform rollouts, and compliance program initiatives.
