Company Description

At SALIX,  we don’t just work with data, we unlock its potential. Since 1999, we’ve grown from the bold vision of two brothers into an award-winning global force, serving over 2,500 clients with cutting-edge solutions in Business Process Outsourcing, Forensic Collection, E-Discovery Processing, Cyber Security, and Workflow Automation. But our true power lies in our people, not just task-doers, but problem-solvers, collaborators, and catalysts for innovation. We hire for impact, not just for roles, and believe in putting the right people in the right seats.  Our people are encouraged to think critically, contribute boldly, and help shape innovative solutions for global challenges. We’re a team that values Service, Achievement, Leadership, Integrity, and eXpertise (SALIX). Here, every role matters, and every contribution moves the needle.

Are you a strategic thinker with a knack for execution? Do you thrive in dynamic environments where precision, communication, and collaboration drive results? We’re looking for an experienced Project Manager to lead internal and client-facing projects from concept to completion. You’ll be the force that keeps projects aligned with scope, timeline, and budget, while maintaining exceptional client relationships and seamless team coordination.

  • Submit weekly Capacity Reports, update the New Business Report post-SOW, and complete Service Failure Reports when applicable.
  • Work with Senior PMs to resolve escalations, align on strategic direction, or request additional resources.
  • Participate in process enhancements, team initiatives, and help refine project management practices across the company.
  • Conduct post-project reviews to capture lessons learned and identify improvement opportunities.

Qualifications
