• Translate customer priorities and clinic workflows into clear implementation requirements and ensure those requirements are understood by the teams responsible for delivery

• Partner closely with dedicated Build and Customer Enablement teams to facilitate the appropriate configuration of PetDesk solutions and ensure customers receive the training and support needed to successfully launch

• Customers and internal teams share a clear understanding of scope, timelines, milestones, responsibilities, and requirements throughout implementation, and internal teams consistently deliver against those commitments

• Large, multi-product implementations launch on the agreed timeline

• A portfolio of 3+ concurrent projects is actively and visibly managed, with clear ownership, status, risks, dependencies, and next steps documented and up to date

• Partnerships with Build and Customer Enablement Subject-Matter Experts are proactive, and choreographed with the right configuration and training activities completed at the right points in the customer journey

• Risks or delays are identified early, communicated transparently, and actively managed rather than becoming surprises for the customer, giving customers and internal stakeholders high confidence that the Senior Project Manager understands the plan, is driving execution, and will keep the project moving forward

• Customers and internal stakeholders have high confidence that the Senior Project Manager understands the plan, is driving execution, and will keep the project moving forward

• Project status, risks, decisions, dependencies, and milestones are documented and up to date across the entire project portfolio

• The PM actively brings AI-driven approaches and process improvements into their work and shares them with the team, reflecting a culture of curiosity and continuous learning
