The posting

Company Description

Join the world’s largest kdb+ Consultancy where you’ll work with some of the biggest names in Capital Markets and continue to elevate your expertise solving complex challenges in an environment built on collaboration, knowledge sharing and continuous learning.

Job Description

We are hiring an experienced Project Manager to support the delivery of a strategic Risk Technology transformation programme for an esteemed New York based hedge fund client. This role will focus on driving project execution, maintaining delivery governance and coordinating the migration from legacy technology to a modern risk platform.

Working closely with senior technology leadership, developers, quantitative teams and business stakeholders, you will ensure projects remain on track, risks are managed proactively and progress is communicated effectively from delivery teams through to executive management.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build, maintain, and manage project plans, milestones, dependencies, and delivery roadmaps.
  • Track project status, risks, issues, actions, and blockers, ensuring timely escalation where required.
  • Produce executive reporting and PowerPoint presentations for senior leadership and programme governance forums.
  • Maintain clear traceability between detailed project activities and executive-level reporting.
  • Drive day-to-day programme organisation, ensuring strong delivery discipline across teams.
  • Manage and maintain Jira boards, ensuring tickets are up to date and accurately reflect delivery progress.
  • Create and utilise JQL queries and dashboards to monitor programme health, team performance, risks, and delivery metrics.
  • Facilitate daily stand-ups, project meetings, and stakeholder communications.
  • Coordinate release planning, system integrations, and migration activities as the organisation transitions from legacy technology to a new platform.
  • Identify cross-functional dependencies and ensure effective collaboration across development, quantitative, and business teams.

The successful candidate will be highly organised, adaptable and capable of working effectively with a wide range of stakeholders. They will be a proactive problem solver who can identify potential conflicts, gaps or risks early and escalate them before they become delivery issues.

Client-facing experience is highly valued, as is the ability to communicate confidently with both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Experience within financial services and technology-driven environments is strongly preferred.

Qualifications

  • Approximately 5+ years project management experience, ideally within Financial Services, Capital Markets, Banking, FinTech or Technology environments.
  • Strong experience with Jira, including dashboard creation, reporting, workflow management and JQL or equivalently SQL or other business intelligence tools
  • Excellent Microsoft Office skills, particularly PowerPoint for executive-level presentations and reporting.
  • Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously.
  • Understanding of software development lifecycles and technology delivery processes.
  • Comfortable discussing technical concepts with developers, including databases, applications and system integrations.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
  • Flexibility in working hours to overlap with US based teams.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
