Our client is looking for a results-oriented Project Manager to join their team for a 3-month plus contract. This is a critical role within a lean, fast-paced team where you will act as the bridge between technical execution and strategic goals.

• PM over Admin: Proven experience managing technical projects. While you should understand the Salesforce ecosystem, your primary strength is project coordination and execution.
• Technical Literacy: Comfort working alongside data scientists and understanding the fundamentals of data pipeline development.
• Small Team Mentality: Experience working in boutique or fast-moving organizations (e.g., Venture Capital, Private Equity, Family Offices) is highly preferred.
• Results-Oriented: A \"get-it-done\" attitude with the ability to pivot quickly as priorities shift.
• Communication: Ability to translate technical requirements from data scientists into actionable project plans for stakeholders.

Preferred Experience

• Background in Financial Services, Venture Capital, Private Equity, or Philanthropy.
• Experience in high-growth or small-scale environments where \"moving fast\" is the standard.
