• Support tactical, operational, or regulatory efforts requiring disciplined coordination and follow‑through

• Apply consistent governance, controls, and reporting standards across assigned efforts

Core Competencies

• Proactive risk identification and escalation
• Strong stakeholder communication and coordination across time zones
• Ability to operate in a structured governance environment
• Effecitve time management and prioritization skills
• Ability to collaborate with other project managers and cross-functional teams

What Success Looks Like

• Consistent execution hygiene across assigned programs and initiatives
• Reduced delivery risk on smaller, high‑impact efforts
• Accurate, audit‑ready project documentation at all times
• Clear, reliable reporting for leadership and portfolio reviews
• Strong coordination with U.S. stakeholders, vendors, and ETX partners
• Improved capacity and focus for senior Project Managers

Qualifications

Required

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent work experience
• 10+ years of experience supporting project or program delivery in a corporate or regulated environment
• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple initiatives simultaneously
• Strong organizational, documentation, and follow‑through skills
• Experience working with cross‑functional business and technology teams, including global stakeholders
• Clear, concise written and verbal communication skills

Preferred

• Experience supporting U.S.‑based business partners or global delivery models
• Experience in insurance, financial services, or other regulated industries
• Exposure to vendor‑supported delivery or ETX‑style partner engagement
• Familiarity with project governance, reporting standards, and delivery controls
