The selected consultant will provide oversight, leadership, accountability, and project-management support for complex strategic projects with executive visibility, diverse stakeholders, vendor participation, multiple schedules, significant integration, and material delivery risk.

Key responsibilities:

- Lead working sessions, sponsor meetings, executive status reporting, stakeholder alignment, and vendor engagement.

- Establish project controls that provide timely visibility into cost, schedule, scope, quality, and change.

- Develop long-term release plans consistent with State of Michigan SUITE methodology and agency priorities.

- Escalate risks and decisions appropriately and maintain accountability across large, matrixed teams.

This is a one-year contract with possible extension. Interviews will be conducted by Microsoft Teams video. Candidates should use a laptop and be prepared to share their screen if requested.

Requirements

- Five or more years working effectively in matrixed team environments.

- Five or more years resolving complex, high-priority conflicts and competing requirements.

- Five or more years applying project-management principles, methodologies, and best practices.

- Five or more years using system-development methodologies for new systems and enhancements.

- Five or more years communicating stakeholder needs clearly and effectively.

- Five or more years analyzing data, identifying problems, and developing actionable solutions.

- Five or more years facilitating cross-team consensus, leading working sessions, and negotiating outcomes.

- Five or more years managing stakeholder relationships and resolving issues.

- Excellent written and verbal communication.

- Current Michigan residence at the time of submission.

- Ability to work onsite in Lansing every Tuesday and Wednesday beginning on day one. There is no remote-only option.

Preferred qualifications:

- Government or public-sector experience, especially with the State of Michigan, MDOT, DTMB, or SUITE.

- Direct RFP experience from requirements and solicitation through vendor selection and implementation.

- AVL, GPS, fleet, telematics, GIS, road-weather, RWIS, or transportation-systems experience.

- Experience in multiple project or program leadership and support roles.

- PMP, CAPM, PfMP, or another professional project-management certification.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
