Is the role of a project manager going away, my clients are moving to Agile and the new product teams don't have a project manager role.

There are scrum masters and release train engineers in Agile which function very similarly to PMs.

Extremely leery of almost any major project without someone designated to manage it somehow

In agile you have Scrum Masters sure. You have have Product Owners and then lastly Product Managers. It's a shift in terminology but it's all within the realm of PMO. It's just built to be more fluid and in theory to execute and learn from mistakes quickly

I think we all proved how convulated Agile has made the concept of PM to appear as if there is no need for it, but it's really just a change in philosophy from top down management to servant type model to enable teams to feel more in control.

Projects and Products are two different things. Project managers are still needed for projects.

So I say this with complete humility and an understanding that this is a fortunate-ish situation to be in. I’m in a position where I am tied to nothing, I have no children, spouse, or house. My job, which I’ve loved until some recent significant leadership changes, is sucking the life out of me and I think it may be time for a change. Because I am able to “pick up and go” I’m open to opportunities and locations. I’ve never worked with a recruiter but was hoping I could get some recommendations!

Resigned from my job for blatant racism last week. Been a contingent worker for 6 months. The manager that recruited me unfortunately left after a couple weeks and went to another company. She however recommended me for the permanent opportunity to higher management. The acting manager came in, permanent role was posted, I applied, interviewed……manager told me they chose someone else external for the role. I could sense the manager had no intentions to hire me permanently
