Cognite Academy is seeking a Senior Project Manager to drive end-to-end execution of training content development initiatives. This individual contributor role owns the day-to-day project management of Academy content development, ensuring projects move from planning to completion on time with clear ownership and minimal friction.
Key responsibilities include:
**Project Planning & Execution:** Own end-to-end project management of Academy content development initiatives. Translate priorities into clear project plans, milestones, and deliverables. Establish and maintain daily, weekly, and monthly execution rhythms. Ensure every project has clearly defined tasks, owners, deadlines, dependencies, and status tracking. Track progress against timelines and proactively address schedule risks. Maintain a consolidated view of all active projects and their health. Drive projects through to completion rather than simply tracking progress.
**Team Coordination & Accountability:** Coordinate closely with Academy team members to ensure weekly commitments and project tasks are clearly defined and updated. Follow up proactively on overdue or at-risk deliverables and help remove obstacles. Facilitate regular project check-ins, stand-ups, and status reviews. Ensure project management systems remain accurate and reflect latest status, ownership, deadlines, and dependencies. Create visibility into upcoming milestones, workload, risks, and potential bottlenecks.
**Cross-Functional & SME Coordination:** Coordinate with Product, Professional Services, Engineering, Customer Success, and other teams to secure SME participation. Schedule and manage SME engagements, reviews, technical validation sessions, and content approvals. Follow up with cross-functional stakeholders to ensure dependencies are completed on time. Identify cross-functional blockers early and work proactively to resolve them. Escalate unresolved risks with clear context, impact, and recommended actions.
**Project Governance & Reporting:** Establish consistent project management practices across Academy content development. Maintain project dashboards, trackers, risk logs, action registers, and documentation. Provide concise weekly status reporting covering progress, milestones, risks, dependencies, and decisions required.
