Remote/Hybrid

Job Overview

We’re looking for a Senior Project Manager to lead high-impact, enterprise-wide
initiatives at the intersection of internal technology, financial systems, and ongoing technical project delivery. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in complexity, can bring structure to ambiguity, and is energized by driving projects that directly influence company-wide outcomes in a fast-paced environment.

In the near term, this role will play a critical part in leading our IT General Controls
(ITGC) program—ensuring audit readiness, managing cross-functional testing cycles, and strengthening operational rigor across the organization. In parallel, you’ll drive strategic technical and business initiatives that span across our financial systems and enable scalability for our growing company.

This role sits within Global Business Operations and reports directly to the Manager, Project Management Office. Over time, this position is expected to transition into the Project Management Office (PMO), making it an excellent opportunity for someone looking to grow into a broader program leadership role.

  • Proactively identify risks, remove blockers, and keep initiatives on track in fastmoving environments
  • Deliver clear, concise updates to stakeholders, including senior leadership, and drive alignment on priorities and outcomes
  • Identify and implement improvements to project delivery, governance, and cross functional collaboration
  • Support best practices in project management and help elevate capabilities across teams

Minimum Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience managing complex, cross-functional projects or programs
  • Proven ability to lead enterprise-level initiatives from planning through execution
  • Strong experience managing technical and cross functional projects with IT enterprise and financial stems in scope (e.g. ERP, ITGC)
  • Exceptional communication skills, including experience working with senior leadership
  • Strong problem-solving mindset with the ability to operate effectively in ambiguity
  • Demonstrated success managing multiple stakeholders, priorities, and dependencies simultaneously
  • Experience with project management methodologies (Agile, Waterfall, or hybrid approaches)

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with ITGC, audit, or compliance-related programs
  • PMP, PMI-ACP, CSM, or equivalent certification
  • Familiarity with tools such as Jira, Asana, Salesforce, and Excel
  • Background in high-growth or scaling organizations
