Are you an experienced senior project manager who can lead M&A projects as well as other large, complex projects? Do you thrive in environments with many moving pieces, competing priorities, and high visibility? Do you enjoy leading cross-functional initiatives, building trust with stakeholders, and helping teams navigate ambiguity to deliver outstanding results?
If so, we’d love to hear from you!
Grant Street Group is an innovative and rapidly growing software company that supports government agencies and financial institutions through specialized SaaS solutions focused on tax collection, electronic payments, and more. Our work is meaningful, complex, and highly collaborative — and we are looking for a Senior Project Manager to lead large, high-impact implementation programs across multiple clients and teams. The project portfolio may include mergers and acquisitions, strategic partnerships, and integrations, as well as other major business initiatives. M&A work is anticipated, though it may not begin immediately; this role will lead other strategic projects as business priorities require.
This is not a coordination-only role. We are seeking someone who can independently lead complex initiatives from planning to execution, drive M&A-related work forward, manage risk proactively, align stakeholders, and adapt to shifting priorities.
Lead project management for mergers, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, integrations, and other major cross-functional projects from early planning through successful execution
Build and manage detailed project plans, timelines, workstreams, milestones, and decision logs across multiple concurrent initiatives
Coordinate cross-functional teams across finance, legal, HR, product, engineering, operations, security, leadership, and external partners
Support due diligence efforts by organizing data requests, tracking open items, coordinating stakeholders, and maintaining momentum across workstreams
Help drive integration planning and execution, including readiness activities, dependency management, and post-close follow-through
Identify risks, dependencies, blockers, and decision points early and proactively drive resolution strategies
Facilitate executive-level communication, status reporting, governance meetings, and stakeholder alignment
Manage competing priorities across multiple workstreams while maintaining visibility into overall project health
Drive accountability across teams while fostering collaboration, trust, and clarity
Help improve internal M&A processes, integration playbooks, and operational best practices
Support teams through changing priorities and evolving business needs with a calm, solutions-oriented approach
Travel up to 35% as needed based on project requirements
Successful candidates will bring strong leadership, communication, and organizational skills along with experience managing large-scale, cross-functional initiatives related to mergers and acquisitions, integrations, enterprise transformation, or similarly complex business operations.
8+ years of project/program management experience in M&A, corporate development, consulting, financial services, enterprise technology, operations, or similarly complex environments
Prior experience leading an M&A project
Experience leading or supporting merger, acquisition, integration, or other high-visibility cross-functional initiatives
Ability to operate independently in fast-moving environments with evolving priorities
Excel at building alignment across technical and non-technical stakeholders
Strong communication skills, including the ability to explain complex topics clearly and simply to executives, teams, and external partners
Sound judgment and discretion when managing sensitive or confidential initiatives
Experience managing projects involving multiple systems, functions, vendors, and cross-functional dependencies
A highly organized, flexible and pragmatic approach, with the ability to balance strategic thinking and hands-on execution
Proactive problem solver who anticipates issues before they become roadblocks
Experience recovering or stabilizing challenged projects/programs or navigating ambiguity during periods of organizational change
Experience with due diligence coordination, integration planning, and post-close execution
Experience with change management, process improvement, or operational integration efforts
Experience in SaaS, software, financial services, or other regulated industries
Experience managing distributed or remote teams
PMP or related project management certifications are welcome but not required
We reward teamwork, professional excellence, and individual responsibility. Our company is structured to support remote work, and we’ve built a culture centered on responsiveness, collaboration, trust, and delivering exceptional service to our clients.
Our strongest project managers are empowered to lead independently, solve meaningful problems, and help shape how work gets done. You’ll work alongside talented, supportive colleagues who care deeply about delivering results and helping one another succeed.
If you’re looking for an opportunity to lead meaningful, high-impact initiatives with a company that values ownership, curiosity, and collaboration, we encourage you to apply.
