About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Own end-to-end delivery of strategic initiatives across a portfolio of university partners.
Turn partner goals into concrete, actionable initiatives with defined scope, sequenced milestones, owners, dependencies, risks, resources, and exit criteria.
Manage a portfolio of simultaneous partner implementations, tracking overall program health across workstreams.
Build genuine knowledge of the Stellic platform and how our partners are using it.
Own project health and partner communications, both internal and partner-facing, in close partnership with the Partner Strategy Lead.
Work closely with Product Delivery Leads and bring the right internal stakeholders into the conversation at the right time.
Proactively manage risk and resourcing. Know when to escalate, how to prioritize, and what tradeoffs make the most sense.
Keep the partner's voice at the center and advocate for what they need across the organization.

Requirements

What you’ll need

Proven experience leading high-stakes, customer-facing programs in a B2B SaaS environment, ideally with large, complex institutions where navigating layered priorities is part of the job.
PMP or project management certification preferred, with a grounded understanding of how to apply PMI best practices in practice.
A genuine draw to the why behind the work. You're capable and sincerely interested in translating strategic goals into actionable initiatives.
The ability to scope ambiguity into structure. You define success metrics before product delivery starts.
Experience managing across concurrent workstreams with a clear system for tracking health across all of them.
Comfort with data. You can troubleshoot a messy CSV and explain a data discrepancy to a non-technical stakeholder without skipping a beat.
Strong negotiation instincts. You look for solutions that work for everyone, and you know how to hold your ground while keeping the relationship intact.
Fluency in project management tools like Monday.com, Smartsheet, or similar.
Willingness to travel on-site when it adds value for the partner.
