📋 Description

• Own project strategy and execution. Lead the development and implementation of project plans that align client objectives with Momentum’s technical, policy, and market expertise. • Serve as the project authority. Act as the primary point of accountability for assigned projects, overseeing scope, budget, and schedule with full decision-making authority unless a Director is directly leading the engagement. • Delegate and manage resources. Determine how project budgets and responsibilities are allocated across Momentum’s internal and external teams, including Client Managers, Project Operations members, and contractors. • Ensure quality and delivery standards.

Project Leads are responsible for the success of every output associated with their projects. • Lead multidisciplinary teams. Provide clear direction, feedback, and support to team members, ensuring alignment, workload balance, and effective coordination across functions. • Generate and maintain work. Meet utilization targets through a combination of selling capabilities internally to Directors and deepening relationships with existing clients to secure new scopes of work. • Anticipate and solve problems. Identify delivery challenges early and implement solutions that preserve project quality, client satisfaction, and financial performance. • Mentor through execution. Develop team capabilities through collaborative work, modeling high standards and strong project discipline within each engagement. • Contribute to company growth. Identify emerging client needs and capability gaps that could strengthen Momentum’s offerings and inform future hiring or service expansion. • Build client trust and presence. Serve as the face of Momentum for assigned projects, fostering relationships grounded in credibility and results that make clients view the Project Lead as their trusted partner. • Collaborate cross-functionally. Work closely with Directors, Client Managers, and the Project Operations, and Business Operations teams to align project execution with organizational strategy and performance standards. • Perform other related duties as assigned.
