Job Description

NYC Department of Finance (DOF) is responsible for administering the tax revenue laws of the city fairly, efficiently, and transparently to instill public confidence and encourage compliance while providing exceptional customer service.

The Finance Information Technology (FIT) Division designs, builds, and supports all facets of DOF's computer systems, including hardware, software, applications, infrastructure, telephone, and data security.

The Senior Project Manager's responsibilities will include but not be limited to the following:

-Participate in the initial review of project proposals or plans to determine a time frame, funding, project approach (agile, waterfall, or hybrid), staffing requirements, and the assignment of available departmental resources to various project phases.

-Define project scope, deliverables, milestones, required activities and tasks and, when required, use this information to inform your participation in drafting a request for proposals (RFP) to meet the project's goals.

-For all assigned projects, establish a work plan and staffing for project activities, sprints or phases, and arrange for recruitment or assignment of project personnel.

-Review/approve the work plan of an external service provider or consultancy contracted to execute the project and serve as the point of contact and coordinator for all required City resources throughout the project's lifecycle.

-Conduct risk assessment and mitigation; maintain a risk register and include risk levels in routine project reporting work.

-Ensure that each project story or requirement is tied to success criteria which are shared out to QA staff for testing purposes.

-Use tools appropriate to the selected project methodology to monitor project activities, document agreements, communicate with project stakeholders, and escalate issues on a timely basis.

-Complete skillful turnover with clear project documentation of all projects to Change Management and Operations, to ensure that users are ready, there are no unintended downstream technical impacts, and that Day 1 Support is ready to triage user needs to appropriate teams.

-Provide leadership and motivation to project team members throughout the project lifecycle and confer with project staff to outline a work plan.

-Act as a coach or consultant to colleagues and stakeholders who need assistance and advice regarding project management practices.

-Collaborate with colleagues and counterparts in other agencies to benchmark project management performance and make continuous improvements in the standards, procedures, and capabilities for project coordination, reporting, and documentation.
