Nexgen Asset Management

<div>Overview:

NEXGEN Asset Management is the industry-leading Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) software company, empowering utilities, public works agencies, and municipal organizations to manage critical infrastructure with confidence. Backed by over 25 years of expertise, our web-based platform supports comprehensive asset management programs across the full asset lifecycle.

The Senior Project Manager is a highly experienced, self-directed delivery leader responsible for the end-to-end success of multiple concurrent EAM software implementations. Working in close partnership with a dedicated Senior Implementation Consultant, the Senior PM owns project governance from contract handoff through go-live and post-deployment handoff &mdash; operating with a high degree of autonomy across complex, multi-stakeholder engagements.

This role is designed for a seasoned implementation professional who requires minimal direction on methodology, brings established client relationship skills, and can independently navigate scope, risk, and stakeholder dynamics at the program and executive level. The Senior PM also contributes to the broader delivery team by sharing best practices, participating in methodology improvement, and providing informal guidance to junior PMs.

Key Responsibilities:
<ul><li>
Own the full implementation lifecycle for a portfolio of concurrent EAM software projects, from contract handoff and kickoff through go-live and post-deployment handoff, operating independently with minimal oversight.

</li></ul><ul><li>Track project budgets and revenue milestones in alignment with percent-complete invoicing structures; identify and surface variances early.
</li></ul><ul><li>Contribute to delivery team methodology by sharing lessons learned, reviewing and improving project templates, and providing informal mentorship and sounding-board support to less experienced PMs.
