Job Title: Senior Project Manager, General Practice
Location: Remote
Company: National Veterinary Associates (NVA)
Reports to: Senior Director, PMO
Job Summary:
National Veterinary Associates is seeking a high-impact Senior Project Manager to lead complex, business-critical initiatives that directly influence operational performance, growth, and client experience across our General Practice network.
This is not a traditional project management role. You are a strategic execution leader—someone who can bring structure to ambiguity, mobilize cross-functional teams, and drive initiatives from concept through adoption in a highly matrixed, multi-site environment.
You will own the full lifecycle of key initiatives, ensuring work is clearly defined, effectively executed, and delivers measurable impact.
The ideal candidate brings a strong project management background with experience in multi-site retail or healthcare organizations, along with a proven ability to operate in complex environments. This role requires strong leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to align stakeholders, guide change, and deliver results.
Key Responsibilities:
Project Design & Lifecycle Ownership
Lead initiatives across the full lifecycle—from early concept, scoping, and planning through execution, rollout, and post-implementation evaluation.
Define clear project goals, success measures, and execution strategies, and track outcomes against those targets.
Ensure all work is structured, sequenced, and aligned to business &/or enterprise priorities.
Organize, Mobilize & Lead Teams
Lead cross-functional teams through coordinated efforts in Operations, Medical, Marketing, Finance, HR, and Technology.
Establish clear roles, responsibilities, and workflows to ensure alignment and accountability.
Facilitate all project activities, ensuring teams remain coordinated, engaged, and progressing toward shared outcomes.
Deliver concise, actionable updates and translate complex work into clear narratives tailored to all levels of the organization. Including anchoring communications in “Why / Why Now / WIIFM” to support engagement and adoption.
Execution & Delivery Excellence
Drive execution with rigor—managing timelines, milestones, dependencies, and deliverables across multiple concurrent initiatives.
Ensure initiatives are delivered on time, within scope, and aligned to intended business outcomes.
Maintain strong operational discipline through structured workplans, tracking mechanisms, and regular execution cadences.
Anticipate challenges, mitigate risks, and adjust plans quickly while maintaining momentum and team alignment.
Define success metrics, track progress against KPIs, and report on outcomes, risks, and trends to ensure initiatives deliver expected results.
Qualifications:
5-10+ years of experience leading complex, cross-functional programs or projects.
Proven ability to manage full project lifecycle—from concept through execution and evaluation.
Experience in multi-site healthcare, retail, or service-based environments preferred.
Demonstrated ability to lead cross-functional teams and influence without authority
Benefits:
Competitive salary ($100-$130,000 range) and comprehensive benefits package.
Opportunities for professional development and career growth.
Collaborative and innovative work environment.Top of Form
