Summary
The Senior Project Manager will be capable of handling our larger, higher risk and heavy system integration type projects either on their own or in conjunction with another Project Manager. They will supervise and mentor the other Project Manager assigned, thereby helping our Project Managers with less experience or less developed skills to grow.
The Senior Project Manager is responsible for ensuring that our clients have a good overall experience. This means that the clients will know that issues and concerns were addressed quickly, fairly and professionally and that updates were provided every step of the way.
The Senior Project Manager will use post-sales skills to make sure the client will want to be a DMW&H customer in the future, recognizes DMW&H’s added value, and that a positive relationship between the Senior Project Manager (and Project Manager if assigned) is established or continues to grow. In many cases, the Senior Project Manager will need to assist a Project Manager to establish a presence with a client to attain these goals.
