Junior Project Manager

We are seeking a hands-on Project Manager to support the planning and execution of a large, cross-functional Workday implementation. This role will manage the day-to-day mechanics of the project, ensuring that plans, meetings, decisions, risks, dependencies, and deliverables remain organized and moving forward.

The ideal candidate has 2+ years of project management experience and has supported Workday or another large enterprise SaaS implementation. This role is well suited to an early-career project manager who has built strong delivery fundamentals and is ready to take greater ownership of a complex project while working alongside senior program leaders, functional owners, technical teams, and implementation partners.

Key Responsibilities

Maintain the integrated project plan, milestones, deliverables, dependencies, and critical-path activities.

Coordinate day-to-day project activities across HR, Payroll, Finance, IT, Security, Data, Change Management, and implementation-partner teams.

Schedule and facilitate project meetings, working sessions, status reviews, and decision forums.

Prepare agendas, capture decisions and action items, assign owners, and follow through to completion.

Maintain project governance materials, status reports, dashboards, RAID logs, decision logs, and other project documentation.

Track risks, issues, assumptions, and dependencies; escalate concerns with clear context and recommended next steps.

Monitor workstream progress and proactively identify conflicts, resource constraints, and cross-functional dependencies.

Support requirements, design, configuration, data conversion, integration, testing, training, deployment, and stabilization activities.

Coordinate testing schedules, defect-management activities, readiness checkpoints, and deliverable reviews.

Work closely with the Workday implementation partner and internal teams to align responsibilities, timelines, and acceptance criteria.

Help functional and technical teams convert discussions into specific actions, owners, and deadlines.

Support change-control processes and assess the impact of requested scope, schedule, or resource changes.

Develop concise project communications for stakeholders and leadership.

Maintain organized, accessible project records and ensure that teams are working from current information.

Promote consistent project-management practices without creating unnecessary administrative overhead.

Required Qualifications

2+ years of project management or closely related project-delivery experience.

Experience supporting complex, cross-functional technology or enterprise SaaS implementations.

Experience coordinating internal teams, external implementation partners, and software vendors.

Strong command of core project-management mechanics, including planning, scheduling, dependency management, status reporting, risk and issue management, and meeting facilitation.

Experience coordinating multiple functional and technical workstreams.

Ability to synthesize complex project information into practical status updates, decisions, and next steps.

Proficiency with standard project-management and collaboration tools.
