Employment Type:

Contract

Certification Required:

PMP (Proof may be requested—yes, they really mean it)

If you believe projects should be planned before they’re launched, risks identified before they explode, and status reports delivered on time—then welcome home.

The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) is seeking an experienced

Project Manager

to lead complex, high-visibility initiatives that support agency leadership and mission‑critical operations. This role requires a steady hand, sharp judgment, and the kind of organizational discipline that keeps large programs from drifting into chaos.

Role Overview As a Project Manager, you will plan, budget, oversee, and document multiple related initiatives while leading special projects assigned by agency leadership. You’ll operate with limited direction and wide latitude—because seasoned professionals don’t need hand‑holding, just clear goals and accountability.

You’ll coordinate across stakeholders, manage dependencies, track progress, and ensure leadership always knows where things stand (no surprises, no smoke screens).

Key Responsibilities

Maintain coordination across multiple related initiatives and high-priority projects

Develop and manage project management tools, artifacts, and documentation

Track and maintain project data for critical and major initiatives

Report progress, risks, and accomplishments to executive and senior leadership

Provide recommendations to improve project management practices across the agency

Initiate, sponsor, manage, or participate in projects to maximize successful outcomes

Ensure timely resolution of issues and removal of project barriers

Facilitate meetings, workshops, and group problem-solving sessions

Develop and manage project plans, budgets, schedules, and resource requirements

Required Qualifications

PMP Certification (Required)

8+ years

of experience in project management within large, complex organizations

Proven ability to research, analyze, and synthesize complex information into concise reports

Strong experience identifying gaps in technology and operational effectiveness

Expertise in business process mapping and process improvement

Statements of Work (SOWs)

Test plans

Budgets, schedules, work plans, and cost estimates

Demonstrated ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously, including enterprise-wide implementations

Strong stakeholder management skills with excellent written and verbal communication

Ability to document risks, issues, dependencies, and contingency plans

Preferred Qualifications

7+ years

developing briefing documents, administrative reports, and PowerPoint presentations for executive audiences

5+ years

preparing and delivering weekly project status updates (written and verbal)

Experience facilitating recurring project status meetings and distributing project and budget reports

Strong judgment in summarizing and escalating issues appropriately—neither panic nor procrastination

Why This Role This is not a checkbox PM role. HHSC is looking for someone who understands that real project management is equal parts planning, communication, discipline, and follow-through—the old‑school fundamentals that still work.

If you’re ready to lead with clarity, structure, and accountability—and you still believe a well‑run project is a thing of beauty—we’d like to hear from you.
