Great Clips is all about bringing great value to people with minimal disruption to their busy lives - both within their haircut experience and within their experiences with our digital technologies. A Great Clips Technical Project Analyst plays an instrumental role on the Project Management team, in making that possible by bringing order to the software development life cycle (SDLC) process.

This position is responsible for the timely creation, maintenance, and validation of project plans with input from the project manager, product owners, business analysts, and the applications development manager to track project status and ensure data used to create project portfolio reporting is accurate to help drive the SDLC process.
