About the Role:

As a Project Manager within Oliver Wyman’s Internal Consulting Hub (ICH), you will be a generalist executing a broad range of projects including (but not limited to) determining strategy, evolving operations, and/or implementing technology changes. You will be part of the Internal Consulting Hub (ICH) team, a global function reporting to the Global Head of Change, which drives high priority projects that have strategic importance to Oliver Wyman and owns cross-functional proprietary tools and processes of the firm.

Projects will usually be of strategic importance to Oliver Wyman, have a senior leader sponsor and involve multiple stakeholders across Oliver Wyman whether different parts of the business, functions or geographies. As a Project Manager in Oliver Wyman, you will be expected to have a broad set of role-specific skills both technical (e.g., analysis) and core competencies (e.g., meeting management) and be able to leverage a broad toolkit of project management practices to suit the project situation. You will need to be a subject matter expert of how Oliver Wyman runs (which you will be expected to learn rapidly on the job) and excel in communication and problem solving. Independent execution of a project requires the Project Manager to be able to play the roles across the seniority chain of a project team from analyst to project leader.

Characteristics of projects for this level of role will be at the more straight-forward end of the spectrum of complexity (e.g. single senior sponsor, single department and/or region) with a largely defined deliverable (e.g., a single technology tool implementation, a process change confined to single department, a well-defined workstream to a larger program). The role is expected to drive-forward a project independently. Ability to manage more complex projects will result in progression in the role. 

** Please note: this position is not part of the IT team **

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead with autonomy a broad range of high-impact projects from initiation (e.g., setting-up governance, forming the project team), execution (e.g., driving activity of the project team, managing senior stakeholders for steer and decisions, solving problems), through to successful completion (e.g., training, launch, post-mortem)

• Collaborate with a diverse range of colleagues across functions, the business, and external parties.

• Prepare and lead all types of meetings and working sessions effectively with participants from all levels of the firm including high frequency interaction with senior leaders both one-on-one and in large groups

• Be a subject matter expert of the organization, its operations and processes, and how everything is connected

• Manage (and mentor) colleagues within a project team and/or the ICH function which will consist of a diverse range of colleagues across the business, the departments, and external parties

• May be required to own operations related to projects until home of best fit is established

Experience Required:

• Minimum of 3 years’ experience in project/program or product management role, preferably in the professional services sector

• Demonstrates a track record of navigating uncertainty, asking smart questions, complex problem solving and conflict resolution

• Advanced proficiency with Microsoft Office (e.g., Outlook, Word, PowerPoint, Excel) and meeting tools (e.g., Microsoft Teams, Zoom)

• Digital fluency including ability to leverage evolving GenAI capabilities

• Fluent in business English
