Role overview

We are looking to hire an organized, highly motivated Project Manager to support the Strategic Program & Project Execution (SPPE) efforts across the organization. This individual will be responsible for leading the execution and delivery of high impact, high visibility projects that are cross-functional in nature. The Project Manager will coordinate across many teams to drive projects that are critical to organizational success and growth.

This position requires significant stakeholder management, the ability to effectively communicate with management on project status, dependencies, risks and mitigation efforts. Some projects we manage are technical and will require you to learn aspects of the related subject matter. You will play a critical role in establishing best practices to support cross-functional project delivery and will be a key contributor to process improvement implementations in relation to project management capabilities.

What you'll do:

  • Work closely with project sponsor and cross-functional teams, to plan and develop scope, deliverables, required resources, project plan, budget and timing for cross-functional, enterprise-wide projects.
  • Lead and inspire cross functional teams to achieve successful execution of company projects, managing and communicating the vision, purpose and guiding principles as determined by the business leaders.
  • Provide regular updates to project teams and business leaders on status, risks and accomplishments.
  • Identify key requirements needed from cross-functional teams and external vendors as appropriate.
  • Work cross-functionally to track and manage dependencies within projects to ensure on-time delivery.
  • Analyze project risks and develop risk mitigation plans to ensure stable execution, while maintaining sight of dependencies and end-state deliverables.
  • Ensure stakeholder engagement and approval by establishing a clear approval process, decision tracking and cadenced demos and updates.
  • Partner with stakeholders on change management and adoption of improved processes.
  • Key contributor to building and enhancing our project management frameworks and best practices to facilitate transparent status tracking and efficient execution.

Who you are:

  • 5+ years of experience managing medium-to-large projects and programs in a project management function.
  • Experience in executing enterprise-wide initiatives. Able to define project plans, coordinate resources, manage all project activities, and develop processes associated with program rollout.
  • Exceptional leadership, time management, facilitation, and organizational skills.
  • Outstanding working knowledge of change management principles and project performance evaluation processes.
  • Experience working with engineering and product teams; comfortable working with technical teams.
  • Comfortable exercising judgment and using analytical skills in ambiguous situations.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's or master's degree in business or related field.
  • Strong working knowledge of Agile practices and methodologies.

Working at CarGurus

We reward our Gurus' curiosity and passion with best-in-class benefits and compensation, including equity for all employees, both when they start and as they continue to grow with us. Our career development and corporate giving programs, as well as our employee resource groups (ERGs) and communities, help people build connections while making an impact in personally meaningful ways. A flexible hybrid model and robust time off policies encourage work-life balance and individual well-being. Thoughtful perks like daily free lunch, a new car discount, meditation and fitness apps, commuting cost coverage, and more help our people create space for what matters most in their personal and professional lives.

We welcome all

CarGurus strives to be a place to which people can bring the ultimate expression of themselves and their potential—starting with our hiring process. We do not discriminate based on race, color, religion, national origin, age, sex, marital status, ancestry, physical or mental disability, veteran status, gender identity, or sexual orientation. We foster an inclusive environment that values people for their skills, experiences, and unique perspectives. That's why we hope you'll apply even if you don't check every box listed in the job description.
