Job description
We are seeking an experienced IT Project Manager to support several high-priority technology integration and infrastructure initiatives following the combination of two organizations. This individual will lead the day-to-day project management of multiple concurrent workstreams, including a Microsoft 365 environment migration and consolidation, identity/SSO integration, and managed service provider transition. The ideal candidate is a traditional project manager with a strong background in IT infrastructure, cloud environments, technology migrations, and service provider transitions. This is not a hands-on engineering role, but candidates should be technically fluent enough to understand infrastructure concepts, communicate effectively with technical teams, identify dependencies and risks, and keep complex projects moving forward.
Responsibilities
- Manage multiple concurrent IT infrastructure and integration projects from planning through implementation and cutover.
- Coordinate the consolidation and migration of separate Microsoft 365 environments into a unified environment.
- Support identity and access management initiatives involving SSO and Microsoft Entra ID.
- Coordinate migration activities involving email, shared information, applications, and other Microsoft-based services.
- Partner closely with technical workstream leads, third-party vendors, consultants, and business stakeholders.
- Manage the transition from existing IT service providers to a new Managed Service Provider (MSP).
- Coordinate vendor onboarding, knowledge transfer, transition planning, dependencies, and implementation timelines.
- Build and maintain project plans, timelines, milestones, action items, risks, and dependencies.
- Keep technical teams and external partners accountable to deliverables and deadlines.
- Facilitate project meetings and provide clear, concise communication to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Identify potential roadblocks early and work across teams to keep projects on track.
- Support migration and implementation activities that may occasionally take place outside of standard business hours.
Requirements
- 5-10 years of IT project management experience, ideally supporting infrastructure, cloud, or enterprise technology initiatives.
- Experience managing Microsoft 365 migrations, integrations, or infrastructure transformation projects.
- Strong understanding of IT infrastructure concepts and the ability to effectively communicate with technical teams without needing to be a hands-on engineer.
- Experience coordinating projects involving SSO, identity/access management, Microsoft Entra ID/Azure AD, or similar technologies is highly valuable.
- Experience managing MSP, IT service provider, or vendor transitions strongly preferred.
- Previous experience supporting M&A integrations, company consolidations, or the integration of separate technology environments is a plus.
- Strong project planning, risk management, dependency management, and stakeholder communication skills.
- Comfortable working with distributed teams, third-party providers, and stakeholders across multiple time zones.
- Able to operate effectively in a fast-moving environment where priorities and requirements may evolve.
- Organized, proactive, adaptable, and able to remain level-headed when projects encounter challenges.
Ideal Profile The strongest candidate will be someone who has previously stepped into a complex IT environment and successfully coordinated infrastructure migrations or integrations across multiple teams and vendors. They should be comfortable bringing structure and accountability to a fast-moving project without creating unnecessary process. Experience within media, events, or a similarly fast-paced organization is helpful but not required. *, * 5-10 years of IT project management experience, ideally supporting infrastructure, cloud, or enterprise technology initiatives.
