The Opportunity

We are seeking a Project Manager to lead day-to-day execution of onsite and field data collection projects, ensuring delivery against client expectations, timelines, and budget.

The Project Manager, who reports into the Program Manager , owns turning program strategy into actionable day-to-day plans and delivering them on the ground, escalating program-level risks and decisions upward as needed.
