Project Manager – Service Delivery – Remote (Central Standard Time)
The Select Group is seeking a Project Manager to oversee and execute a portfolio of projects. This role operates in two modes depending on engagement needs: leading project mobilization and setup and owning projects outright from kickoff through closeout. The right candidate is comfortable with both and will find as much satisfaction in a clean handoff as in end-to-end ownership.
The ideal candidate brings a solid foundation in PM principles and thrives in a dynamic, high-growth environment. They bring structured thinking and discipline to their work while remaining adaptable. They are skilled at translating client needs and statements of work into structured plans and tracking progress and ensuring timely high-quality delivery.
This individual is highly organized, detail-oriented, and proactive, with demonstrated ability to balance multiple priorities while maintaining strong communication with both clients and internal teams.
We are seeking candidates located in Central Standard Time Zone so they can support coast-to-coast markets. Ideal Candidate locations: Texas, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri
