Job description
Project Fixers delivers IT programs that are too important to fail.
This is not a standard program management role - we specialize in programs in distress, and focus on high-visibility initiatives with high cost of failure. You will take ownership of complex, cross-functional programs - often stepping into situations that require project stabilization, stakeholder realignment, and decisive execution to plan.
What You’ll Be Doing
Lead large-scale IT programs across multiple teams, systems, and stakeholders
Rescue programs that are lacking structure, alignment, and forward momentum; Identify root-causes of program dysfunctions – and address them directly.
Drive execution across business, technology, and external partners
Establish clarity where there is ambiguity and competing priorities
Communicate clearly with senior stakeholders, including when the message is not easy
What This Role Requires
10+ years leading complex IT programs and digital transformations
Experience with complex multi-system enterprise environments (ERP, CRM, integrations, data platforms)
Demonstrated ability to learn and master business process and technical subject-matter and thoughtfully guide business and technical teams through roadblocks - not just track status
Experience working across multiple teams and stakeholder groups with competing and misaligned priorities
Good judgment, equally high IQ/EQ, calmness under pressure, and the ability to analyze and simplify complex situations
Strongly Preferred
Experience stepping into programs running off-track and helping stabilize or redirect them
Exposure to environments with high executive visibility and delivery pressure
Ability to quickly assess what matters vs. what doesn’t - and act accordingly
This Role Is Not for Everyone
This role is likely not a fit if:
Your experience is primarily within well-structured, low-ambiguity environments
You managed technical teams’ delivery with limited exposure to business sponsors
You have no prior experience managing struggling programs
You prefer clearly defined roles, stable plans, and limited stakeholder complexity
About Project Fixers
We focus on delivery - not PMP theory. Project Fixers manages delivery of complex IT programs that involve major system implementations, integrations, and digital transformations. We are expert fixers who can put any IT project that’s going sideways back on track.
