Job description

Looking for your next Project Management opportunity within Financial Services? We’re partnering with a highly regarded investment and wealth management organisation seeking an experienced Project Manager to join their growing technology team.

With a significant portfolio of projects already underway and a strong pipeline of future initiatives, you’ll have the opportunity to work across a diverse mix of infrastructure, application, compliance, cyber security, CRM, AI, data and business transformation projects. Reporting to a Senior Project Manager, you’ll play a key role in delivering projects end-to-end while helping support an evolving PMO environment.

About the Role

This is not a role for someone looking to deliver the same project repeatedly. Instead, you’ll work across a broad range of initiatives, partnering with stakeholders, vendors and technical teams to drive outcomes in a lean, fast-paced environment. The successful candidate will be comfortable navigating ambiguity, quickly learning new subject matter and taking ownership of delivery outcomes.

Key responsibilities include:

• Managing multiple concurrent technology and business projects from initiation through to implementation and go-live
• Developing and maintaining project plans, timelines, resource plans and delivery milestones
• Managing project governance, RAID registers and delivery reporting
• Coordinating vendors, implementation partners and internal stakeholders
• Identifying risks, issues and dependencies while driving mitigation strategies
• Supporting project scoping, prioritisation and business engagement activities
• Facilitating workshops, project meetings and stakeholder communications
• Supporting UAT, business readiness and go-live planning activities
• Managing project delivery across Agile and Waterfall environments

About You

You’ll be a proactive and adaptable Project Manager who enjoys variety and thrives when faced with new challenges. We’re looking for someone who can quickly understand requirements, build delivery plans and drive outcomes with limited direction.

We’re interested in speaking with professionals who have:

• Strong stakeholder and vendor management capabilities
• Experience managing multiple concurrent projects
• Strong project governance, reporting and RAID management capability
• Experience working across both Agile and Waterfall delivery environments
• Excellent communication, critical thinking and problem-solving skills
• The ability to operate effectively within lean and fast-moving teams

Highly Regarded

• Financial services, wealth management or capital markets experience
• Exposure to compliance, cyber security, infrastructure or platform projects
• PMO experience
• PRINCE2, PMP, Agile or equivalent certifications
• Experience working with global stakeholders and third-party vendors

Interested?

If you’re a Project Manager who enjoys variety, thrives on solving new challenges and wants to deliver meaningful projects in a complex and evolving environment, we’d love to hear from you.
