The IT Project Manager, Sr. plans and coordinates all aspects of IT specific projects from initiation to delivery.

The role also includes acquiring resources and coordinating efforts of team members and third-party contractors or consultants to deliver projects according to the established project plan. This role defines the project's objectives and ensures delivery of quality. What distinguishes the Senior level is that projects for this role are typically larger and more complex than for non-Sr. Project Managers.
