Project Manager, Financial Marketing

Global Financial Services Giant
New York, NY
Freelance

A global financial services firm is searching for the right Project Manager to tackle a digital re-launch project that may spin off side-projects as it goes. Your job here will be to lead a distributed team, keeping communication tight and collaborate with the legal department to make sure all regulatory issues get ticked off the checklist.
If you’re an organized PM with website launch and/or relaunch chops, particularly in the financial services arena, this one’s for you.

Nitty Gritty
You will be project managing the execution of the launch of their new big initiative and the heart of the role is ensuring that the quality of each deliverable remains up this brand’s famously high standard. Driving deliverables with stakeholders and rigorously organizing the project plan will be your key duties. To accomplish this, you’ll have to be a rigorous organizer and a ruthless prioritizer. You’ll also have to communicate upward to management on the status of projects and major deliverables.
You’ve got some strong website development experience but, above all, you are a skilled and articulate communicator, both in person and via email and phone.
You’ll be working with a thoroughly international team here and you’ll need to show an American ‘get-it-done’ spirit, without exhibiting brash American manners.

Hired Gun Profile
You’re a tireless project manager with a history of driving big endeavors to completion without breaking a sweat. You’re the consummate executor, smoothing rough seas and solving challenges that would normally require teams of less amazing professionals. Most of all, your project management skills are unparalleled. When your coworkers talk about you, they use words like “indomitable,” “unflappable,” or maybe “indefatigable” if they’re fancy.

Your considerable professional maturity allows you to see things to do and do them, rather than waiting on your boss to come activate you. You’re not the “leave work a tad early” type; instead, you get a rush by getting it all done and watching the pieces fall neatly into place.

Inside Skinny
This project is not one for the typical 9 to 5er. It’s a three-to-six-month gig that might mean long hours.

The Hired Gun who lands this role will have a terrific story to tell, and an amazing project to put on their resume.
