Leads and governs an enterprise-wide project management office, overseeing strategic initiatives, operational programs, technology investments, and transformation portfolios. Establishes PMO standards, methodologies, tools, and governance; provides executive visibility into delivery status, dependencies, risks, and financial impact; supports private equity value-creation initiatives and integrations; applies Lean process improvement; and builds a high-performing EPMO team.
The Director of the Enterprise Project Management Office (EPMO) is responsible for establishing, leading, and governing a centralized EPMO that drives execution discipline, prioritization, and value realization across the organization.

- Oversee the enterprise project and program portfolio, providing clear visibility into status, dependencies, risks, and financial impact.
- Support PE value-creation initiatives, add-on integrations, and transformation programs with rigorous execution oversight.
- Apply Lean and process improvement principles to improve delivery efficiency and reduce execution friction.
- Build, lead, and develop a high-performing EPMO team, including senior project managers, project managers, and project coordinators.
- Own PMO tools, dashboards, and reporting standards (Monday.com, Smartsheet, Microsoft Planner/Project, Power BI, SharePoint).
Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Business, Engineering, Operations, Health Administration or a related field; MBA or Master's preferred.
- 8–12 years of progressive experience in project, program, or portfolio management.
- 5+ years leading enterprise change or transformation initiatives.
