Job Overview

Role 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 Senior Director, offering strong visibility and influence. 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.
