Jane Smith
Freelance project manager | Cloud & Infrastructure Specialist
Hi! I'm Jane Smith
I keep high-stakes IT projects on track—cutting delays by 40% and eliminating scope creep.
What I bring to the table
A calm presence. A structured plan. And, results that make you look good.
Cloud and tech
migrations
From legacy systems to cloud infrastructure, I manage complex migrations with minimal disruption. Stakeholders stay informed and systems stay stable.
Cross functional
collaboration
I align engineers, product teams, and executives—across time zones and tools. My calm, structured approach keeps communication flowing and progress visible.
Scope, budget
& timeline control
I rein in scope creep, protect budgets, and keep projects on track—reducing delays by 40% on average. You’ll always know where things stand.
Security & risk
readiness
Whether it’s cybersecurity initiatives or vendor coordination, I flag risks early, build contingency plans, and make sure nothing falls through the cracks.
Tech & business acument
Domestic and global experience
Why clients bring me in:
- Their in-house PMs are overloaded or too junior
- A critical system change is at risk of slipping
- Execs need clear, consistent updates
- They need someone who can bridge business and tech
Recommendations
Jane gets it DONE!
She brings the right people to the table, holding parties account for their work, collaborating across time zones, cultures and systems. Jane is the glue for the team. She goes above and beyond week over week, often attending calls in the middle of her night to ensure she is supporting our global partners. She asks the right questions, she documents her work (and holds other account to providing good documentation) and she attacks each problem as an opportunity. She has the business and technology IQ to lead global teams, lead large strategic initiatives and bridge communication between executives and working teams. She is a pleasure to work with and any organization would be better off with her part of the team.
