Description
Client is looking for an Intermediate IT Project Controller to join its IT project-controls team. This role supports senior controllers while independently managing project-controller responsibilities for an assigned IT portfolio. The position serves as a flexible, intermediate resource designed to float across assignments and collaborate closely with senior controllers, Project Managers, and Delivery Managers.
This role will focus on IT infrastructure projects - such as network upgrades and data-center projects. The right candidate brings direct project-controls experience and sufficient technology/infrastructure context to understand complex project nuances without requiring foundational training on the environment.
Key Responsibilities
- Own project-controller responsibilities for an assigned IT portfolio, including budget management, forecasting, commitments, project monitoring, financial analysis, and monthly financial reporting.
- Support routine requisitioning and purchase-order activity across project environments.
- Support the broader IT project-controls team as an intermediate resource, floating across assignments and working closely with senior controllers.
- Collaborate directly with Project Managers and Delivery Managers to monitor and analyze project health and financial progress.
- Utilize heavy SAP functionality (specifically the Project System / PS module) for project controls and project administration.
- Communicate concrete project metrics, scale, personal controls, and financial impact clearly to stakeholders.
Required Qualifications
- Approximately 5 years of professional project-controls experience (target level is junior-to-intermediate/intermediate).
- Relevant project-controls experience with direct responsibility for budgeting, forecasting, commitments, project monitoring, financial analysis, or monthly reporting.
- Demonstrated ability to work independently on routine project-control responsibilities while collaborating effectively with senior controllers.
- Proven experience working directly with project stakeholders, particularly Project Managers and/or Delivery Managers.
Preferred Qualifications
- Prior IT project or IT infrastructure experience, particularly network upgrades, data centers, or comparable infrastructure programs.
- Hands-on SAP experience, specifically SAP PS (Project System) module.
- Experience with requisitioning and purchase orders within project environments.
- Strong data analysis skills and ability to explain the scale, personal control, and impact of past projects supported.
