Project Manager - change management/organizational/process improvement opportunity

 

 

08/21/12 8:45 AM 

Hello,

 

My name is Wendy and I'm an IT recruiter at Princeton Information.  Our records show that you are an experienced Project Manager in change management/organizational or process improvement.  This experience is relevant to at least one of my current openings.
 

  • This is a LONG TERM CONTRACT ROLE in NYC
  • All candidates must currently have the lawful right to reside and remain in the United States and must be authorized without sponsorship to work in the U.S.
  • Client is seeking W2 candidates for this role:

 

Project Manager

 

We are seeking a relevant background in change management/ organizational or process improvement (vs. IT focused project managers). The scope of experience must be on a global scale.

 

What we are looking for is an experienced project manager who has worked on business-based projects, which we feel is quite different from front-office and IT projects.  Examples would include organizational redesign, process improvement, operational efficiency/cost reduction, etc.  The right individual doesn't necessarily need to have real estate/facilities experience, however an understanding of the operational challenges of a business is very important.  Of particular interest are transformational projects.
