Position Overview: Becker Professional Education is looking for a Project Manager to join our Accounting Product team. This role drives delivery across our full product portfolio — from new product launches and major updates to process improvement initiatives and ecommerce platform development on Drupal and Salesforce. You will partner closely with cross-functional teams in Product, Sales, Marketing, Finance, Customer Support, and Technology. You are expected to lead with clarity, communicate status without jargon, resolve obstacles decisively, and hold teams accountable to timelines and deliverables. This role requires both traditional project management rigor and the ability to remain flexible and adaptable to evolving project needs, changing conditions, and team dynamics. Additionally, the role must have enough technical fluency to manage software development projects — understanding the software development lifecycle, reading a Jira board, and translating technical complexity into plain-language stakeholder communication.
