This is your chance to roll up your sleeves and lead diverse projects—whether routine, complex, or entirely unique—while shaping our trajectory in the healthcare space.

If you’ve worked in a high-growth startup and are ready to apply your experience in a rapidly scaling environment, this is the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.

• Stakeholder Management: Communicate with stakeholders at all levels, ensuring that expectations are clear, aligned, and consistently met throughout each project lifecycle.
• Agility in Action: Stay nimble and adaptive as you manage shifting priorities, reset expectations when needed, and handle the evolving demands of a growing company.

• Regulatory Champion: Ensure that all projects comply with relevant healthcare manufacturing regulations, including FDA standards and ISO certifications.
• Dynamic Problem Solver: Tackle challenges head-on, leading teams through complex project scenarios and delivering creative solutions that keep progress moving forward.
• Road Warrior (Sometimes): Travel up to 20% domestically to attend meetings, conferences, and support business initiatives as necessary.

What You Bring to the Table:

• Versatility: You’re familiar with managing diverse types of projects and can pivot between standard, non-standard, and complex project scenarios with ease.

• Excellent Communication & Leadership: You know how to engage stakeholders, lead cross-functional teams, and keep everyone aligned and motivated toward common goals.
• Adaptability: Your experience managing competing priorities, resetting expectations, and navigating shifting project scopes has made you a master at keeping projects on track in dynamic environments.
• Problem-Solving Pro: You thrive when challenges arise and have a proven track record of developing creative solutions that drive project success.

Your Background:

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, Project Management, or a related field (Master’s preferred).
• Certifications: PMP certification (required); Lean Six Sigma (Green, Yellow, or Black) a plus.
• Experience: 5 years of project management experience, preferably within a high-growth startup, medical device manufacturing, or a related industry.
