Project Manager

About The Role.

Murj is looking for a highly qualified Project Manager with experience working in a healthcare setting. This individual should have strong skills in change management, work-plan development and progress tracking, and be able to manage relationships between clients and relevant internal stakeholders. Candidates should be comfortable working independently, and taking the initiative to identify and address work needed but not necessarily assigned.

What You’ll Do.

• Provides day-to-day leadership for the planning, implementation, and closing of projects
• Addresses and resolves issues/blockers and escalates when required
• Assesses change management needs, develops and implements strategies
• Implements communication plans
• Leads the individual implementation team project discussions and keeps the projects on track
• Meet with clients to clarify specific requirements for each project
• Manage the relationship with the client and relevant stakeholders
• Manage changes to the project scope and project schedule using appropriate verification techniques with applicable software.
• Perform risk management to minimize potential risks.
• Create and maintain comprehensive project documentation.
• Track project performance, specifically to analyze the successful completion of short and long-term goals.
• Develop comprehensive project plans to be shared with clients as well as other staff members.
• Perform other related duties as assigned.

What Makes You a Great Fit.

• Servant Leadership: A successful project manager focuses on empowering their team members, removing obstacles, and ensuring they have the resources needed to succeed, rather than simply dictating tasks from management.
• Adaptability and Resilience: Projects rarely follow the plan perfectly. Thriving PMs can quickly pivot, manage unexpected changes or setbacks without losing composure, and help their team navigate uncertainty.
• Ownership and Accountability: Taking full responsibility for the project's success or failure, including proactively addressing issues, learning from mistakes, and ensuring promises made to stakeholders are met.
• Proactive Problem-Solving: Instead of waiting for problems to become crises, successful PMs anticipate potential risks, brainstorm solutions early, and implement preventive measures.
• Strategic Thinking: While managing the day-to-day tasks, a strong PM keeps the "big picture" in mind, ensuring all project activities align with the organization's strategic goals and deliver genuine value. 
• Exceptional Communication: This involves not just updating stakeholders, but active listening, clear instruction, conflict resolution, and translating complex healthcare technical jargon into understandable terms for various audiences (clinicians, integration team members, customers).
• Highly Organized and Detail-Oriented: Juggling, timelines, resources, and multiple moving parts for numerous projects requires meticulous organization skills to track progress and ensure nothing falls through the cracks.
• Empathetic and Relationship-Driven: Building strong relationships with team members and stakeholders is crucial. Understanding team dynamics, recognizing individual strengths, and managing diverse personalities (both internally and externally) fosters a positive and productive environment.
• Decisive Action: The ability to analyze available information quickly, make sound decisions, and commit to a course of action is vital to keep the project moving forward when faced with ambiguity.
• Effective Delegation and Trust: A thriving PM knows they cannot do everything themselves. They effectively delegate tasks based on skill sets and trust their team to deliver, while still providing necessary oversight and support. 

What You Bring.

• Bachelor's degree or four years of direct experience in lieu of degree.
• Two years project management experience within a healthcare setting.
• PMP Certification (If you do not currently have this certification, you will be required to obtain the highest certification available to you within one year of employment).
