Mayo Clinic • Rochester, MN

6d

About The Position

The Project Manager (PM) works independently and assumes primary responsibility
for planning, coordinating and delivering strategic HR project activities across
the full project life cycle (from initiation through handoff to the customer).
This role has a strong emphasis on stakeholder engagement, across both technical
and business unit teams, as it will be focused on implementing an agentic AI
strategy in HR. The PM is expected to be experienced in driving projects,
identifying potential solutions to road blocks, working independently,
 presenting recommendations, and supporting informed decision-making at the
leadership level.

The PM is accountable for achieving project objectives on time and within budget
and may independently lead one or more large projects of strategic importance.
Project work is broad in scope and characterized by moderate to high risk,
complex interdependencies, and potentially significant financial and
organizational impact. The PM provides structured project oversight and supports
decision-making and formulation of solutions to accomplish agreed-upon project
objectives, operating with minimal supervision.

The PM regularly communicates project status, risks, dependencies, and
recommendations to project leaders, executive sponsors, and key stakeholders
across the organization. This includes preparing and delivering clear, concise
materials and updates tailored to senior-level audiences.

The PM facilitates problem-solving, decision-making, and change management,
applying sound judgment and experience to drive project outcomes. The role
requires the ability to balance strategic perspective with execution discipline,
ensuring alignment with Mayo Clinic’s strategy while advancing project
objectives. Strong business acumen is essential, as is the ability to work
effectively across diverse functions and build credibility at all organizational
levels.

This role may require matrix supervision and coordination of colleagues from
other departments, divisions, and external contractors or vendors. The PM
actively works to increase efficiency, motivate project teams, and advocate for
changes that ensure quality, timeliness, and successful adoption of project
outcomes. Performs additional job functions as assigned by the immediate
supervisor.
