Summary Generated by Built In

A Lineage Logistics the IT Project Manager is responsible for successfully implementing large, complex, global technology projects. The role involves coordinating technical and functional resources across multiple teams and often requires working concurrently on several global projects. We are seeking a detail-oriented IT Project Manager to support operational governance, SOX-related activities, and smaller technology initiatives within our ERP environment, including Workday. This role is primarily client-side and focuses on coordinating recurring control activities, supporting audit readiness, and driving structured execution of small-to-medium initiatives across Finance and HR systems.
The ideal candidate is a strong organizer and communicator who can work across technical and business teams, bring structure to evolving processes, and ensure accountability for timelines, documentation, and compliance-related deliverables. This is not a large-scale implementation role — it is a hands-on coordination and governance role critical to operational stability and audit readiness. Success in this role requires comfort operating in a fast-paced environment where not all processes are fully defined, and a willingness to help bring structure and consistency over time.
At Lineage, the goal is to create a versatile, right-sized, highly skilled team with the proper mix of talents, skills, and experience, with the capacity for and interest in continuous learning to support technologies that can become key organizational differentiators. We leverage cloud services, best-of-breed technologies, and external resources to augment our internal capabilities and provide sufficient delivery capacity. This means that in addition to being a great project manager, an ideal candidate will need to be able to review and collaborate with internal and external resources to ensure that we are collectively able to deliver projects in a timely and cost-effective manner.
As a company, Lineage aims to develop state-of-the-art systems to make our employees productive, meet and exceed our customers’ expectations, assist in our growth, and create an operating platform that enables Lineage to achieve its vision of transforming the global food supply chain. This is one of the most critical roles in that journey, and it will require someone who has a true passion for technology project management.
