Be Part Of A High-Performing Team:

Join a global financial institution’s capital markets technology organization during a period of continued delivery transformation and portfolio growth. This team supports complex initiatives across business, product, technology, risk, and operations while strengthening project governance, delivery visibility, and executive decision-making.

The environment combines Agile technology delivery with the disciplined financial, resource, and milestone management expected within a highly regulated banking organization. Project Managers serve as the connective layer between business portfolio leaders, technology teams, product owners, Scrum Masters, and senior executives.

What’s In Store For You:

• Engagement: W2 only, with no C2C or 1099 arrangements.
• Hybrid schedule based in Charlotte, North Carolina, with onsite work required on Mondays and Thursdays.
• Exposure to visible capital markets technology programs and senior business stakeholders.
• Opportunity to influence project governance, executive reporting, and delivery maturity.
• Collaboration with experienced product, technology, and Agile delivery professionals.

How You Will Make An Impact:

• Lead the business, financial, governance, and executive-reporting components of capital markets technology initiatives.
• Partner with business portfolio managers to clarify business needs, required delivery dates, expected outcomes, and funding requirements.
• Coordinate the development of lean business cases and guide initiatives through review and approval processes.
• Create and maintain cost plans, resource plans, milestones, risks, issues, dependencies, and project forecasts in the organization’s portfolio-management platform.
• Work with product owners, technology leaders, and delivery teams to establish realistic start dates, completion dates, and high-level milestones.
• Serve as the primary connection between business stakeholders and the teams responsible for technical delivery.
• Maintain a strong understanding of initiative health without becoming responsible for individual stories, bugs, tasks, or sprint administration.
• Translate Agile delivery progress into executive-level reporting that clearly communicates milestones, costs, risks, and outcomes.
• Prepare concise meeting minutes, status reports, governance decks, business cases, and funding presentations.
• Present project information to senior business and technology leaders, including global executive stakeholders.
• Coordinate closely with Scrum Masters to obtain timely and accurate delivery updates.
• Ensure resource allocations and project tasks remain accurate so that financial reporting and time-entry activity align with current plans.
• Use reporting and visualization tools to support portfolio oversight and executive decision-making.
• Proactively identify approaching deadlines, reporting gaps, and delivery risks before they become escalations.
