Introduction
At IBM, our Project Managers excel by leading and coordinating a project team’s overall performance, scope, cost, and deliverables. Our clients rely on timely and efficient status reports, and as Project Manager, you will drive the charge with project direction, metric definition, and performance management. If you are ready to help our clients and project teams succeed, we would love to meet you!
Your Role and Responsibilities
This role will manage multiple product development areas at the same time and mostly focused on technicalprojects. This means in this role, you will have a technical background but also have great project management skills to manage programs. To be successful in this very complex role, you will possess many interdisciplinary skills, including communicating with top level executives, multiple product teams, and subject matter experts across multiple product lines. You will coordinate projects across many disciplines who all have stakes in a technical project, including Sales, Product Manager, Development, Services, and Business Partners. You possess
a technical background because you will need to understand and traverse technical
dependencies, work very closely with deeply technical people, project managers, and release managers, to ensure the roadmap and often non-technical dependencies and deliverables are on track.
