Summary:
The Senior IT Program Manager will drive complex IT roadmaps as it relates to the areas of Data, KM, DMS, Litigation Support, Library/Digital Records, SharePoint and Enterprise Search related projects.
You will partner with key business stakeholders to align business goals with technology initiatives within your portfolio, specifically key legal departments where you'll be interfacing directly with attorneys.

You will vet new technology vendors, communicate with existing vendors to drive enhancements and have strategic responsibility for the direction of technology within your portfolio.
You will subsequently create and manage a roadmap that balances interests across business and IT stakeholders. You will then partner with the PMO and project managers to ensure delivery of projects on your roadmap.

Manage all products for their area, in this case, the Firm's Enterprise Search engine, Collaboration Spaces, Expertise Management, and approximately 50 smaller systems and tools.
  • Make key tradeoff, risk, and other critical decisions to do the "right" thing for the program, taking into account all perspectives.
  • Champion change and innovation in the area - socializing a forward-thinking program of projects and program roadmap.
  • Determine skills needed, roles needed, and create and organize project teams based on resource estimates from the resource owners (Business Analysts, Developers, Architects, Project Managers, etc.) Resolve resource, timing or other conflicts between projects and groups
  • Work with other Senior IT colleagues to create solutions for technology trends that span across programs (e.g. mobile, data/analytics, security, etc.)
  • Facilitate the annual IT project budgeting process with accounting and IT portfolio directors for their assigned area
  • Hire, train, and lead staff in this area for high levels of performance and results, professional development and impact
