Client Onboarding Project Manager (Full-Time | Remote or Hybrid | Exempt)
Why Cedarstone?
At Cedarstone, we help nonprofits change the world by running their back-office operations—freeing them to focus entirely on their mission. We are a growing company built on trust, excellence, and a shared purpose. If you love turning complex details into smooth, organized processes and want your work to have a meaningful impact, we’d love to meet you.
The Opportunity:
We are looking for a Client Onboarding Project Manager to partner closely with our Client Experience and Financial Operations teams. In this role, you won't be running day-to-day accounting or managing long-term accounts. Instead, you will be the architectural bridge that creates and leads a seamless implementation process for new clients and expanded services. You’ll take the baton from sales and design the roadmap that sets our clients up for long-term success.
What You'll Do Here:
- Lead the Roadmap: Own and drive onboarding plans, timelines, and cross-functional team tasks.
- Design the Setup: Coordinate the collection of essential setup details, from system access and banking to payroll and workflow requirements.
- Set Teams Up to Win: Partner with internal leaders to ensure receiving teams are fully prepared and workflow expectations are crystal clear before a project wraps up.
- Evolve the Process: Continuously refine our onboarding checklists, templates, and tools while proactively keeping leadership ahead of any timeline or scope risks.
What You Bring:
- The Right Background: Professional experience in project management, implementation, professional services, nonprofit operations, or accounting operations.
- The Toolkit: Exceptional organization skills, clear communication, and a knack for building highly functional process documentation.
- Bonus Points: Familiarity with AP, payroll, donation processing, or client service workflows is a huge plus.
The Perks & Culture:
This is a full-time, 40-hour-per-week role reporting directly to the Chief Operating Officer. We embrace a flexible, remote-friendly culture where you can work from home or in a hybrid arrangement (1–2 days/week in our Wheaton, IL office) or fully remote from any of our registered states: AR, AZ, CO, FL, GA, IA, IL, IN, KS, MI, NC, OH, TN, or TX.
We offer a competitive benefits package designed to support your life inside and outside of work, including:
- Medical insurance (approximately 75% employer-paid)
- 401(k) plan with company matching
- 10 paid holidays plus generous PTO
- Optional dental, vision, and supplemental insurance

Tips for Your Onboarding Manager Job Search
Distinguish employee from client onboarding
Onboarding manager roles split into two very different tracks: employee-side HR onboarding and client-side implementation onboarding. Tailor your resume to one track per application, pulling the most relevant metrics and tools so hiring managers can place you immediately.
Quantify your onboarding program outcomes
Hiring managers want to see impact, not just ownership. Replace vague bullets like 'managed onboarding' with specifics: time-to-productivity improvements, completion rates for onboarding milestones, or the number of new hires or clients you onboarded annually.
List your LMS and HRIS tools explicitly
Many applicant tracking systems filter resumes by tool names before a human reads them. If you've worked in Workday, BambooHR, SAP SuccessFactors, or any learning management system, name each one clearly in a dedicated skills section.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists onboarding manager openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Prepare a portfolio of onboarding materials
If you've built onboarding checklists, training decks, or new-hire welcome guides, bring anonymized samples to interviews. Showing a finished asset demonstrates program-building ability far more convincingly than describing it in a bullet point.
Negotiate start dates and ramp expectations
When you receive an offer, ask about the team's current onboarding backlog and hiring pace. Knowing whether you'll be onboarding ten people in month one or building the program from scratch changes your negotiating leverage and sets realistic ramp expectations.
Onboarding Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most onboarding managers?
The most active employers for onboarding managers right now are JPMorganChase, Advyzon, and Aprio, and the most openings are in California, Texas, and Florida, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. High-growth technology companies and large enterprise employers in financial services tend to post the highest volume of these roles.
How many onboarding manager jobs are remote?
About 67% of onboarding manager openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting strong employer flexibility for the role. Client onboarding and implementation roles in SaaS tend to be the most remote-friendly, while employee onboarding roles that involve in-person orientation or facilities coordination are more likely to require on-site presence.
How do you become an onboarding manager?
Most onboarding managers move into the role from coordinator or specialist positions in HR, talent acquisition, or customer success. Build hands-on experience managing onboarding workflows, then develop fluency with HRIS and learning management tools. Earning an HR certification such as SHRM-CP strengthens your candidacy, and demonstrated ability to build or improve a program from scratch is what separates candidates at the manager level.
Can you get an onboarding manager job with little experience?
Yes, especially if you can point to onboarding-adjacent work in HR coordination, training, customer implementation, or operations. Hiring managers care most about whether you've owned a process end to end, even a small one. Volunteer to lead onboarding improvements in your current role, build a sample onboarding guide, and target smaller companies where the function is still being built rather than maintained.
What does the onboarding manager interview process look like?
Most onboarding manager interviews involve a recruiter screen, a hiring manager conversation focused on your program experience, and a panel or cross-functional round with HR, IT, or operations stakeholders. Expect scenario questions about handling a failed onboarding rollout, coordinating across departments, and scaling a program during rapid hiring. Some employers ask candidates to present a sample onboarding plan or walk through a past program they designed.
Where can I find and apply to onboarding manager jobs?
You can find and apply to onboarding manager jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers across the United States. Search for roles that match your track, whether employee onboarding, client onboarding, or HR operations, and apply directly to each listing that fits your background and target location.
