Senior Project Manager

About the Opportunity

This Senior Project Manager role is part of the SMR Integration organization in Holtec's Camden, NJ engineering office and supports the Quality Processes team within that organization.

The successful candidate will be a senior, self-directed problem solver who can lead complex cross-functional initiatives, identify systemic inefficiencies, drive action closure, mentor others, and help leadership execute with clarity, accountability, and quality.
