Overview
The Business Project Manager will lead cross-functional workstreams spanning operations, finance, treasury, risk, and regulatory domains — working across our global offices to deliver outcomes that strengthen the firm’s operating model, controls, and regulatory posture.
The ideal candidate brings strong project management experience, stakeholder engagement skills, and an understanding of risk or governance processes within a regulated or operationally complex environment.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the planning, execution, and delivery of multi-workstream transformation programs spanning operations, accounting, finance, treasury, risk, regulatory, and technology.
- Drive coordination across global offices, aligning regional teams against shared objectives while respecting local infrastructure, processes, and regulatory nuances.
- Facilitate senior leadership forums: build agendas, prepare pre-reads and briefing materials, capture decisions and action items, and drive timely follow-through.
- Apply effective program management techniques – i.e. structured decision-making frameworks, decision logs, and reporting tools to drive accountability across globally distributed teams operating across time zones.
- Identify and resolve risks, issues, and cross-program dependencies; escalate effectively when alignment is needed at the executive level.
- Develop clear, concise reporting for senior leadership, operations committees, and risk forums.
- Author internal communications, status updates, and stakeholder engagement materials that translate business requirements and technical detail into executive-level narrative.
