Project Manager; Office of Chief Financial Officer

Requirements

• This role is ideal for someone who is execution-oriented, thrives in fast-paced environments with competing priorities, and takes pride in turning ambiguity into structure. You don't need to have all the answers — but you need to be the kind of person who figures things out, moves fast, and never drops a ball
,
• 5+ years of experience in management consulting, business operations, FP&A, strategic finance, or a similar role in a fast-paced environment
,
• Strong program management instincts — you are highly organized and can juggle multiple work streams simultaneously, keep things moving, and hold people accountable without formal authority
,
• Excellent communication & executive presence — your emails are crisp, your follow-ups are clear, and your documents are polished; you’re also able to interact with senior leadership, “manage up” effectively, and maintain composure in high-pressure situations
,
• High adaptability and low ego — you're excited to work on a high-visibility strategic initiative in the morning and build a project tracker in the afternoon. No task is beneath you if it helps the team win
,
• Exceptional content development skills — you can build a clear, compelling, executive-ready deck from scratch. You think in structure and narrative, not just bullet points
,
• Highly trustworthy — you understand the need to exercise discretion when working on confidential projects
,
• Financial fluency — you don't need to be a CPA, but you're comfortable operating inside a finance organization and working with financial concepts, KPIs, and business metrics
