proud to serve in the centralized office for the University system.
Together, we ensure CU continues to deliver outstanding education,
groundbreaking research, and valuable service to our
communities.
We believe in creating an environment where the unique experiences
and perspectives of everyone are embraced, enriching the work we do

System Administration .
The CU System Office of Advancement provides strategy, expertise,
and service to our partners across CU's campuses and the University
of Colorado Foundation, supporting the university's fundraising and
engagement goals through advancement operations spanning
constituent data, business intelligence, technical architecture,
gift administration, marketing, IT, and more.
The Program Management Office (PMO) is the technical delivery
function within System Advancement - the counterpart to Service
Delivery, Training & Outreach. Where that team owns governance,
training, and stakeholder adoption, the PMO owns the technical
delivery and execution side: leading complex projects, performing
business analysis, and stewarding the systems that run the work.
Together, the two functions deliver whole solutions and change -
not technology alone.
The Program Management Office (PMO) Manager leads this function and
its team of project managers and business analysts. The role is
accountable for delivery across a backlog of business-critical
initiatives on the CU Ascend (Salesforce) platform and related
systems; for advancing the team's agile ways of working; and for
serving as connective tissue across development teams, Service
Delivery, Training & Outreach, and the campuses and Foundation
the work serves.
We are seeking a delivery leader who can mature an established PMO:
raising delivery rigor, evolving methodology toward agile, building
business analysis capacity, and owning the tools and standards that
keep work transparent and moving.
Applicants must be Colorado residents or able to relocate to
Colorado within a month of starting employment with University of
Colorado System Administration.
The CU System Office of Advancement follows a “flexibility first”
approach to work, which guides how we manage and utilize in-person
time. This hybrid position primarily operates remotely, with
occasional in-office requirements as directed by your supervisor
and up to four callback weeks per year, during which all team
members are expected to be onsite.
Two of these callback weeks are required and typically occur in the
spring and fall. Any additional callback weeks or in-office time
will be determined by your supervisor.
During callback weeks, this role is expected to work onsite at the
CU System Office located at 1800 Grant Street, Denver,
Colorado.
Please note, leadership may adjust in-office work requirements
with a minimum of three months' notice before any change can be
implemented.
