  • Drive day‑to‑day execution, ensuring milestones and deliverables are met.
  • Facilitate governance forums, status reporting, and executive communications.
  • Proactively identify risks and issues, and drive resolution with appropriate stakeholders.
  • Coordinate across product, technology, operations, risk, and compliance partners.
  • Manage demanding stakeholders and senior leadership expectations with confidence and clarity.
  • Ensure alignment to enterprise project management standards and best practices.
  • Support change management, communication, and implementation readiness activities.
QUALIFICATIONS
  • 5–7+ years of hands‑on project management experience within banking or financial services.
  • Proven experience leading complex, cross‑functional initiatives.
  • Exceptional communication, stakeholder management, and executive presence.
  • Comfortable operating “in the weeds” while maintaining a strategic delivery view.
  • Strong knowledge of project management methodologies and practices.
  • PMP or equivalent certification strongly preferred.
  • Highly organized, proactive, and delivery‑driven.

We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company.
