Job Description:
GIS Project Specialist – Enterprise Platform Rollout
Brooklyn, NY: Hybrid (3 days onsite per week)
Compensation: $30 - $35 per hour (DOE)
ABOUT THE ROLE
Our client is seeking an organized and communicative GIS Project Specialist to support the Phase 3 go-live of an enterprise geospatial platform rollout within a large utility environment. This associate-level, hybrid role is business-facing and project-oriented, requiring the ability to manage workstreams independently with minimal day-to-day direction. The specialist will play a key role in project and change management, user readiness, and functional testing, while collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure successful platform adoption. The position also involves developing training materials, serving as a liaison between technical and business stakeholders, and ensuring data accuracy within GIS databases. Experience with GIS platforms is a plus, but strong project and change management skills are the priority. A background in the utility industry and a relevant bachelor’s degree are preferred.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Support Phase 3 go-live activities, including end user readiness, functional testing, and UAT coordination
- Work alongside the change management team to ensure smooth adoption across business units
- Develop and maintain job aids, training materials, and user-facing documentation
- Serve as a liaison between technical teams and business stakeholders
- Track open items, escalate blockers, and keep workstreams moving toward milestone completion
- Maintain and update GIS databases, ensuring data accuracy, integrity, and consistency across systems
- Perform spatial analysis and interpret geospatial data to support business and operational decision-making
- Produce maps, dashboards, and visual reports for internal stakeholders and project teams
- Assist with data migration, layer configuration, and platform administration tasks during rollout phases
- Support quality control reviews of GIS data submitted by internal teams or third-party vendors
- Coordinate with engineering, operations, and IT teams to gather requirements and translate them into GIS workflows
- Document GIS processes, data standards, and system configurations for ongoing reference
- Assist with any ad hoc support needs as the platform transitions to steady state
WHAT YOU BRING
- 1–3 years of experience in project coordination, GIS analysis, or a related business/technical role
- Familiarity with GIS platforms (ArcGIS, ESRI) preferred
- Utility industry background a plus
- Strong communication skills, ability to manage workstreams independently, and comfort managing up
- Experience working in a fast-paced enterprise environment with multiple stakeholders
- Bachelor's degree in GIS, Geography, Urban Planning, Information Systems, or related field preferred
