Technical Project Manager: Core Bank Modernization

Location: Remote - United States

Department: Product Delivery

Youll lead a core banking modernization initiative, bringing strong organizational skills and a bias for action to a project where the path isnt always clearly marked. Youll be joining a leading professional services firm as a full time employee, doing real client work that ships, not theoretical roadmaps.

WHAT YOULL DO

• Own day-to-day management of a core banking modernization initiative, including planning, tracking, and reporting
• Navigate ambiguity and shifting priorities with a clear bias for action rather than waiting for perfect clarity
• Build relationships across the clients organization, understanding who owns what and how decisions actually get made
• Escalate progress, risks, and blockers clearly and confidently to senior leadership and executive stakeholders
• Coordinate across technical and business teams to keep modernization work moving toward its goals
• Surface risks and dependencies early, working with stakeholders to resolve them before they become problems
• Translate technical detail into language that senior, non-technical audiences can act on
• Build and maintain trust with stakeholders at every level, from day-to-day contacts to senior sponsors

WHAT WERE LOOKING FOR

• Strong project management experience with demonstrated organizational and communication skills
• Proven stakeholder engagement ability, including navigating complex organizational structures
• Financial industry experience, specifically domestic banking
• Comfort reporting and escalating directly to senior and executive audiences
• A clear bias for action, someone who moves things forward rather than waiting for ideal conditions
• Experience working through ambiguity on a project without a fully defined playbook
• Strong written and verbal communication skills across technical and business audiences
• A collaborative, clear communicator who builds trust quickly across an organization
