Job DescriptionJob Description

Title: Senior Project Manager

FERC & Change Management Accounting Compliance

Duration: 5 Months

Location: Portland, OR - Remote


Description

Performing work on two high profile accounting projects underway:

MONET Software Replacement – project management (manager: Erin Schwartz): this is a software project to replace an existing power cost forecasting model (“MONET”). This work would be for project management activities for a “lift and shift” software initiative; driving coordination, deadlines, testing cycles and deployment of the new tool.


FERC Order 898 compliance – change management services (manager: Carl Brinker): this is a project to adopt an accounting rule change effective 1/1/2025. This large project is already in flight and has identified the need for change management resourcing to help drive adoption of end-users. Changes for end-users are centered around


1) understanding what is changing and why, 2) where/when/how to change existing accounting strings where applicable, and 3) others impacts, e.g. to their budgets. This role is not project managing the overall implementation, cutover and deployment, just the change management aspects of the project. Role will involve scoping impacted parties, assessing training/communication needs, and drafting & deploying those change awareness needs.


Team and Work Environment

core team of 5 financial modelers and two primary stakeholder groups each with ~5 key contributors

FERC 898: broad project team (approx. 50+); change management audience (impacted end users) of 300+.


What would “a day in the life” of this role look like?: Project management: lift-and-shift software implementation.

Change management: accounting compliance project


What interaction level with this role have the team members and hiring manager? Interaction with project teams (software project management) and broader business (change management)


What would you say is the top priority for the worker over the first few weeks/months?: MONET: get caught up on project, assemble a project timeline and plan.

FERC 898: scope impacted population, begin assessing training and communication needs.


What do you foresee being the biggest challenge in this role? The stakeholders for the MONET lift and shift will require a lot of research and analysis before making a “go” decision on selecting the replacement – more than what is typical.

The FERC 898 is a broad-reaching program and will involve several target audience with differing levels of involvement and acumen.
