Job description

Senior Project Manager | Cyber Security | SOC | Italy

Fully Remote | 12-Month B2B Contract | €500–€550 per Day

We are looking for an experienced Senior Cyber Security Project Manager based in Italy to join a leading global cyber security organisation on an initial 12-month contract, with strong potential for extension.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone with a strong background in external customer-facing cyber security projects, particularly within Security Operations Centres (SOC), SecOps and enterprise security environments.

The successful candidate will take ownership of multiple customer projects, working closely with clients, security engineers, technical consultants and Professional Services teams to ensure successful delivery.

What You'll Be Doing

• Leading the end-to-end delivery of complex cyber security projects for external customers.
• Managing projects involving SOC, Security Operations, security platforms and enterprise cyber security solutions.
• Acting as the main point of contact for external customers, managing expectations and ensuring successful delivery.
• Coordinating cyber security engineers, technical consultants and Professional Services teams.
• Managing multiple customer projects simultaneously, ensuring delivery remains on time, within scope and budget.
• Taking ownership of project plans, milestones, risks, dependencies, resources and change requests.
• Providing regular project updates, governance reporting and clear communication to senior stakeholders.
• Supporting the implementation and delivery of enterprise security solutions.

What We're Looking For

• Proven experience as a Senior Project Manager delivering complex cyber security projects.
• Strong cyber security project delivery experience is essential, rather than purely general IT project management.
• Experience managing SOC, SecOps, Security Operations or SOC transformation projects is highly desirable.
• External customer-facing delivery experience is essential, ideally within a cyber security vendor, consultancy, MSSP or Professional Services organisation.
• Experience managing multiple external customer engagements and coordinating technical delivery teams.
• Understanding of cyber security technologies, ideally including SIEM, XDR, endpoint security, threat detection or security operations platforms.
• Excellent customer relationship management, stakeholder engagement and communication skills.
• Strong project governance, risk management, budget management and change control experience.
• Understanding of enterprise IT infrastructure, networking and cloud technologies.
• Fluent Italian and English are essential.
• PMP, PRINCE2, Agile or equivalent certification would be advantageous.

Who Would Be a Great Fit?

We are particularly interested in Project Managers who have worked for cyber security vendors, security consultancies, MSSPs or Professional Services organisations, delivering security projects directly to external customers.

You’ll have a strong understanding of cyber security environments, ideally with exposure to SOC or Security Operations projects, and be confident managing multiple technical customer engagements.

Interested?

If you're based in Italy, fluent in Italian and English, and have a strong background in customer-facing cyber security project delivery, I'd love to hear from you.
