Job Description:

Senior Project Manager, Real Chemistry

Real Chemistry is looking for a senior Project Manager to lead complex AI-driven and/or IT technical initiatives across our growing portfolio. This high‑visibility role focuses on translating ambiguity into structured delivery and bringing cross‑functional teams along for the ride. You will own end‑to‑end project delivery, shaping how we manage AI‑integrated and/or IT programs and systems at scale. The role requires comfort communicating and presenting solutions and changes to both technical teams and C‑suite stakeholders.

This is a hybrid role based in any US office—New York City, Boston, Chicago, Carmel, or San Francisco—or remotely within the US, depending on team and business needs.

What You’ll Do

  • Maintain full ownership across multiple high‑priority workstreams simultaneously.
  • Serve as the primary point of accountability for project health by proactively identifying risks and developing mitigation plans before they escalate.
  • Facilitate solution development with subject matter experts and build comprehensive project plans and risk registers across multiple workstreams.
  • Lead governance and reporting cadences: status meetings, stand‑ups, milestone reviews, and executive‑level project updates.
  • Work directly with external IT, Security, Engineering, and QA partners; hold technical partners accountable to timelines without writing code.
  • Use enterprise project management platforms like Workfront, and collaboration/documentation tools such as SharePoint and Microsoft Teams.
  • Apply change management practices to guide teams and stakeholders through shifting priorities, assess downstream impacts, communicate implications clearly, and drive alignment.
  • Model documentation hygiene and PM best practices.
  • Contribute to PMO process development, playbooks, and onboarding materials as the team scales.

What You Bring

  • 7+ years of project management or technical IT experience.
  • Demonstrated experience managing large‑scale, cross‑functional programs with multiple stakeholders and interdependent workstreams.
  • Basic familiarity with AI tools and platforms (generative AI, automation, data pipelines, or similar).
  • Exceptional communication skills—equally comfortable presenting/communicating to technical teams and C‑suite stakeholders.
  • A track record of leading with accountability, clarity, and composure under pressure.

Pay Range: $120,000–$135,000
