Our products are all start-up companies that were purchased by our larger umbrella company, so the culture at each product varies and their knowledge of what a project manager provides is limited. The current request is to facilitate meetings, take notes, and be a task master to ensure things are getting done. We both know a PM can do a lot more than that, so I'd love someone who can bring the full PM picture to this team, but not be overbearing about it, as there are some strong personalities at play.This role is going to be meetings heavy. Other meetings include client meetings, Executive leadership meetings twice a week (internal and external), Client PM meetings, and Project team meetings. Needs someone who can adjust expectations and help the team move in the right direction - facilitate meetings, schedule meetings, take notes - knowing that a PM can add more value than that, but a PM that comes in to overhaul is not going to work with this team. Being subtle and watching for dependencies and risk awareness is going to be important. Getting the team to realize through conversations around risk is essential.They don't want to be told, but this PM would need a soft hand to manage them and nudge them while also having the confidence to hold their own and do their job.Beacon Hill is an Equal Opportunity Employer that values the strength diversity brings to the workplace.
