The summary above was generated by AI

Client  is seeking an autonomous senior professional to oversee and coordinate digital accessibility projects with established vision and priorities. This is not a product ownership role: the individual will not define the vision or the backlog but rather advance a pre-defined plan with the business and IT teams. The core of the role is cross-functional coordination: monitoring deadlines, managing risks, coordinating partners, and reporting to management.

The recurring terms (roadmap, action plans, stakeholders, influential leadership, indicators) confirm a priority given to delivery tracking and engagement without hierarchical authority. The title "Project Manager" is explicitly open depending on the candidate's profile, and expertise in accessibility remains an asset, not a requirement. The format is a short-term, part-time contract of 10 hours per week, fully remote, with a few scheduled meetings and the rest organized according to the consultant's availability. This should not be confused with a backlog-focused product owner, a designer, a developer, or a project manager confined to a single team.
