Job Description
As a Senior Information Systems Project Manager you will be the driving force behind new Information Systems initiatives. You will work with business operations teams, end-users, and technical experts on a range of IT and IS projects. You will need to research the topic, organise, coordinate, and run the implementation of systems and tools.

The basis of the job is Project Management, so this needs to be easy for you
Making a plan, setting and running meetings, documenting progress and issues, and reporting to management are all daily activities

By the end of the project, anyone should be able to ask you a question about it and you can provide a quick answer without notes
