Our Senior Technical Project Managers lead agile delivery for CourtAvenue’s most complex, multi-workstream digital transformation programs — composable platform builds, design systems, and phased legacy-site migrations. This role owns the day-to-day execution of a program’s technical and creative workstreams, translating a signed Statement of Work into sprint-level delivery while partnering closely with account leadership on client strategy.
This Sr. Project Manager runs agile ceremonies — sprint planning, daily scrums, backlog refinement, retrospectives — across a co-delivery model that embeds client developers and designers directly on the team, and holds the program to its scope, budget, and gate-review schedule. Comfort with technical concepts (headless/composable CMS, API-driven integrations, data layer and analytics implementation) and confidence managing scope through formal change-request processes are essential.
Responsibilities
Own day-to-day delivery of a multi-workstream digital transformation program — platform/CMS build, design system, content, and phased migration — from mobilization through launch and stabilization
Run agile ceremonies (sprint planning, daily scrums, backlog refinement, retrospectives) across a co-delivery model that embeds client developers and designers directly on the team
Translate the Statement of Work into a sprint-level backlog, an integrated program timeline, and a RAID log, keeping scope, budget, and schedule aligned to the signed engagement
Coordinate parallel workstreams spanning platform build, design system and token governance, system integrations, and legacy-site migration waves
Manage the change-request process end to end — flag scope triggers early, document schedule/budget impact, and drive sign-off before repriced work begins
Partner with engineering and architecture leads on technical delivery planning — environments, CI/CD, code review cadence, and release management
Own gate-review readiness at each program milestone, confirming technical proof, data and measurement continuity, and team-readiness criteria before the next phase begins
Track quality gates including accessibility (WCAG 2.1 AA), Core Web Vitals performance, and cross-device QA sign-off ahead of every release
Facilitate stakeholder workshops — goals and objectives, alignment, governance — to keep the program grounded in agreed priorities and success criteria
Build and maintain the integrated delivery timeline across CourtAvenue, client stakeholders, and any subcontracted teams
Identify and escalate risks and blockers — resourcing gaps, dependencies, vendor readiness — before they threaten the delivery schedule
Collaborate with the Account Management team and report program status, risks, and milestones to the Director of Client Delivery
Communicate succinctly and credibly across client executives, technical teams, and creative teams, adapting the message to each audience
Requirements
5-7+ years of technical/agile project or program management experience, ideally delivering composable CMS, platform migration, or design system programs
Deep working knowledge of agile/Scrum methodologies, including sprint planning, backlog management, and co-delivery models with embedded client developers
Agency or consultancy delivery experience strongly preferred
Working comfort with technical concepts — headless/composable CMS architecture, API-driven integrations, data layer and analytics implementation, and CI/CD basics
Experience managing multi-workstream programs with parallel platform, design, content, and migration tracks
Proven ability to run formal change-request and gate-review processes on fixed-fee or milestone-based engagements
Skilled at managing scope, budget, and risk across cross-functional and cross-organizational delivery teams
Strong stakeholder management and executive communication skills, written and verbal
PMP, CSM/PSM, or SAFe certification a plus; bachelor’s degree in a related field or equivalent experience
