Here's what the prospect supported through our TGS Talent Acquisition Team requires:

Overview The Senior Engagement Manager position is a delivery leadership position in the organization in which the individual may be responsible for managing one customer or a small book of business (i.e. geography based).

Alternatively, the Senior Engagement Manager may be responsible for these same duties for a very complex, large-scale program or engagement with high demands around deliverables, SLAs, or technology/practice acumen.

When management duties are involved, this individual is responsible for the guidance and mentorship of a team of Engagement Managers based in a region or practice area. The Senior Engagement Manager provides ownership of customer expectations, delivery assurance of application services, and all-around outcomes for clients. The Senior Engagement Manager role is responsible for quantifying the business benefits of project outcomes throughout the engagement.

The position of Senior Engagement Manager is distinguished from the Engagement Manager I and II positions by the nature of the engagements or programs involved. As a more advanced Engagement Manager position, a Senior Engagement Manager is expected to have the experience and background to perform all the duties described below for engagements of all service types including all those expected of a Engagement Manager II along with complex deliverable-based, fully outsourced, or extremely large-scale engagements or programs. This position requires a more demanding set of skills, educational background and demonstrated experience as related to the technical practice area.

This role may require up to 50% travel.
