Genesis10 is currently seeking a Senior IT Project Manager position with a Regional Financial Institution located in Columbus, OH. This is a 9- month remote contract opportunity.

Pay range:
$60.00 - $78.00 per hour

We are seeking a Senior IT Project Manager to join the Technology PMO, aligned to the Cybersecurity portfolio, supporting a high-priority Information Classification Strategy Program. This role is ideal for a strong PMO-style project manager who brings structure, governance, and execution discipline to complex cybersecurity and compliance-driven initiatives. The position requires a highly detail-oriented, execution-focused leader who can manage complex workstreams, ensure precision in reporting, and confidently engage with executive stakeholders.

Responsibilities:
  • Lead delivery of large-scale cybersecurity initiatives within a PMO-driven environment
  • Create and manage detailed, multi-workstream Project Management Plans aligned to PMO standards
  • Establish and enforce project governance, structure, and reporting discipline
  • Deliver highly accurate and detailed status reporting (timelines, milestones, risks, dependencies, resource tracking)
  • Partner with Cybersecurity leaders, technology teams, and compliance stakeholders to drive execution
  • Prepare and present executive-level materials (PowerPoint) for senior leadership and steering committees
  • Identify and manage risks, issues, and dependencies with proactive mitigation strategies
  • Ensure alignment with internal controls, governance standards, and cybersecurity-related compliance efforts
  • Utilize enterprise tools such as ServiceNow PPM and Microsoft Project for planning and tracking
  • Operate primarily in a Waterfall delivery environment, with some exposure to Agile practices

Requirements:
  • 7 years of experience in IT Project Management within a PMO or structured delivery environment
  • Experience supporting cybersecurity, risk, or compliance-related initiatives (not necessarily hands-on cyber)
  • Strong ability to stand up and structure projects from initiation through execution
  • Proven expertise in Waterfall project delivery (Agile familiarity is a plus)
  • Exceptional attention to detail, particularly in status reporting and project tracking
  • Experience working in highly regulated environments (financial services preferred)
  • Strong executive communication skills with demonstrated executive presence
  • Advanced proficiency in PowerPoint and executive presentations
  • Ability to manage complex initiatives with multiple stakeholders and dependencies

Desired skills:
  • Experience working within a centralized IT PMO supporting technology or cybersecurity portfolios
  • Familiarity with ServiceNow PPM and/or Microsoft Project
  • Understanding of cybersecurity or control frameworks (e.g., NIST, ISO)
  • PMP or equivalent certification (nice to have, not required)

Only candidates available and ready to work directly as Genesis10 employees will be considered for this position.
