Cella is seeking a Senior Project Manager to lead technology-driven digital initiatives for a global hospitality brand.

Responsibilities:
- End-to-End Delivery: Lead complex digital initiatives-including web replatforms, mobile applications, MarTech tools, and content authoring platforms-from initial kickoff to final go-live and post-launch wrap-up.
- Schedule & Scope Management: Build and maintain detailed project plans, critical-path dependencies, and milestones across diverse cross-functional workstreams. Manage scope, release planning (MVP vs. post-launch), and formal change control.
- Vendor & Stakeholder Alignment: Coordinate and hold multiple third-party vendors accountable to SOW deliverables, defect fixes, and deadlines while maintaining strong alignment across business, tech, and creative teams.
- RAID & Financial Ownership: Own risk management (RAID logs) by proactively identifying issues early and driving mitigation plans. Track project finances, including actuals, forecasts, and invoice confirmation.
- Quality & Governance: Oversee testing readiness (UAT, regression, defect triage, go/no-go decisions), run Scrum of Scrums and status meetings, and draft concise, executive-ready status reports following established PMO governance.
Qualifications:
- Experience: 5-7+ years of dedicated Project Management experience, with at least 3 years explicitly focused on delivering digital projects (web, mobile, eCommerce, or MarTech).
- Methodology Exposure: Proven expertise in both Agile/Scrum and Waterfall approaches, with strong experience navigating hybrid environments.
- Technical & Platform Familiarity: Familiarity with digital platforms such as CMS (Adobe Experience Manager preferred), analytics, SEO, and content authoring workflows.
- Tooling: Highly proficient in Jira and Confluence; hands-on experience with Smartsheet, MS Project, or Clarity, alongside advanced Excel capabilities for reporting.
- Soft Skills: Exceptional written and verbal communication skills tailored for executive leadership; strong vendor negotiation skills; self-starter mindset capable of driving progress independently.
- Education & Certifications: Bachelor's degree in Business, Computer Science, Information Systems, Marketing, or equivalent field experience. PMP certification and/or Agile certifications (CSM, PMI-ACP, SAFe) are strongly preferred.
- Industry Background: Experience in hospitality, travel, or loyalty programs is a plus, though candidates from pharmaceuticals or financial services with strong SDLC backgrounds are encouraged to apply.
