Job details
Job description, work day and responsibilities
Who You Are: Reporting to the VP of Customer Success, the Project Manager will own the full implementation lifecycle for a portfolio of government agency clients, from contract kickoff through data refinement, environment launch, and client handoff. You'll work directly with state DOT project leads, MPO program managers, and city/county traffic engineers and GIS specialists to drive complex, multi-stakeholder implementations to completion on time and in scope. You'll be the primary point of accountability between what Citian committed to in the contract and what the client experiences on day one of using the platform.
This is not a coordinator role. You'll manage milestone-based delivery schedules, enforce quality gates, navigate three-party consultant relationships, and proactively identify opportunities to expand Citian's footprint within accounts.
