About Us We are BetMGM. We are revolutionizing sports betting and online gaming in the United States. We are a partnership between two powerhouse organizations-MGM Resorts International and Entain Group. You know our name through our exciting portfolio of brands including BetMGM Sportsbook, Borgata online, Party Casino and Party Poker. We aim to bring our ideas into action and find ways to deliver the best quality in gaming platforms. We understand that each card in the deck plays a unique role in any given hand, just as our employees each play a unique role in accomplishing our goals as a company. We strive to create a culture of empathy where our employees feel valued, heard, and comfortable bringing their authentic selves to work. We want to build a product and a workplace that reflect the communities we serve so we approach our work fearlessly, take responsibility when we get it wrong, and ante-up again. We play to win, and we are all-in together. We were recognized as one of Glassdoor's "Best Places to Work". About the Role We're looking for a project manager who thrives in ambiguity, moves fast with incomplete information, and brings structure when it's necessary. Sitting at the intersection of project management, program coordination, portfolio strategy, and delivery execution, this is a unique individual contributor role crafted for someone who gets energy from wearing multiple hats and solving tough, cross-functional challenges. There will be no one-size-fits-all playbook. Instead, you'll partner closely with product, design, engineering, operations, commercial, and compliance teams to bring clarity, momentum, and outcomes to highly fluid, complex initiatives. From untangling dependencies across multiple companies to stabilizing fast-moving programs mid-flight, you'll help drive the work that doesn't always have a clear owner - but is essential to our success. It is a highly visible role with a clear focus on improving the quality, velocity, and accountability of work between cross-functional teams by acting as a "force multiplier." Success in this role is defined by your ability to make an impact with your critical thinking, attention to detail, ability to zoom out and see the big picture, and influencing key stakeholders. If you love working in the gray, bringing a calm mind to chaos, and naturally aligning teams toward a common goal, we want to meet you! Responsibilities Portfolio-level awareness Maintain visibility into concurrent initiatives - formal and informal - and spot overlaps, risks, and resourcing bottlenecks. Support strategic prioritization efforts in collaboration with product, design, and engineering leadership. Help leadership understand tradeoffs through effective reporting and context-aware insights. Program/Project Oversight Own the delivery of critical initiatives that span multiple disciplines - whether it's a last-minute compliance pivot, a rapid product rollout, or a first of its kind new company initiative. Maintain clear project plans, dependencies, and risk logs - even when the ground is shifting. Facilitate planning sessions, retros, and working groups across multiple time zones and departments (even companies!) Orchestrate Chaos Dive into ambiguous, high-stakes initiatives and create clarity through structure, documentation, and communication. Define ways of working; design lightweight processes to keep things moving without creating red tape. Identify gaps in ownership or execution and step in as the connective tissue across teams. Delivery leadership without direct authority Act as a trusted execution partner to cross-functional teams - especially product and engineering - without having formal ownership. Influence stakeholders at all levels with empathy, credibility, and a deep understanding of the work on the ground. Drive accountability and alignment, not through hierarchy, but through relationships and follow-through. Qualifications 5+ years of experience in project/program/delivery management or operations, preferably in high-growth or ambiguous environments. Background in sports betting, gaming, or other highly regulated and fast-moving industries strongly preferred. Proven track record of thriving in roles with limited structure, unclear ownership, and rapid change. Deep understanding of agile methodologies, delivery best practices, and navigating various stakeholder dynamics. Highly effective at building relationships, influencing without authority, and earning trust quickly. Tools you should be comfortable with: JIRA, Confluence, ASANA, Workfront, and anything that helps get the job done. You're equal parts strategic thinker and tactical executor - able to build a roadmap and also roll up your sleeves. Strong communication skills - written, verbal, and in-between. The annual salary range for this position is $86,400 to $113,400. Factors which may affect starting pay within this range may include geography/market, skills, education, experience and other qualifications of the successful candidate. This position is also eligible for participation in a performance-based bonus plan.
