Facilitate Agile delivery by running sprints and ceremonies (planning, stand-ups, reviews, retrospectives), managing the backlog in Jira, and removing impediments to keep teams on track.
Manage change control, resource allocation, and vendor coordination throughout the project lifecycle.
Identify, monitor, and mitigate project risks and issues, proactively resolving or escalating to protect timelines and budgets.
Conduct project closures, ensuring operational integration, capture of lessons learned, and evaluation against defined success criteria.
Support portfolio reporting and success metrics, and identify opportunities to improve processes, automation, and workflow efficiency.
Report project status and communicate updates to senior leadership and business review teams using appropriate tools, techniques, and metrics.
Provide direction and mentoring to project teams, managers, owners, and sponsors, encouraging trust, accountability, and continuous improvement.

Experience in the financial services or banking industry.
6–8 years of project or program management experience leading complex, enterprise-wide initiatives, including technology and digital projects.
Demonstrated ability to deliver across Agile, Waterfall, and Hybrid methodologies.
Working knowledge of project management and delivery tools (e.g., MS Project, Jira, Confluence).
Advanced proficiency in MS Office (Word, PowerPoint, Visio, Outlook, Excel) and Atlassian tools (Jira, Confluence).
Proven experience leading cross-functional teams and presenting to senior leadership and business stakeholders.
Strong organizational, critical-thinking, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to manage multiple changing priorities.
Excellent written and verbal communication, with the ability to influence stakeholders and lead meetings and formal presentations at all levels.
