Job description
Director, Project Management — 6-Month Contract-to-Hire | Alpharetta, GA (4 days/week onsite)
Also open to candidates based in Glen Allen, VA; Minneapolis, MN; or Greenwich, CT (5 days/week onsite in Greenwich).
You’ll join a leading specialty insurance organization as it scales its Project Management Office to meet rising demand. In this individual-contributor Director role, you’ll own enterprise-wide, large, complex technology and data transformation initiatives — including target operating model design — partnering directly with business units rather than managing a team.
Key Responsibilities
Lead large-scale technology and data transformation projects from initiation through delivery
Design and implement target operating models in partnership with business unit leaders
Partner cross-functionally across operating units to align project scope, risk, and outcomes
Manage project budgets, timelines, and stakeholder communication at the enterprise level
Identify and resolve risks and roadblocks before they impact delivery
Travel to client/business sites as needed to support project execution (25–75%, project-dependent)
Represent the PMO in executive-level project reviews and steering committees
Required Qualifications
Proven ownership of large-scale technology and/or data transformation projects
Direct experience building and implementing target operating models
PMP or Lean Six Sigma certification
US Citizenship (no visa sponsorship available for this role)
Nice-to-Have Qualifications
Insurance or financial services industry experience
Experience partnering with business units in a matrixed, non-people-management capacity
Tools & Environment
Enterprise PMO tooling and reporting for large transformation programs
Cross-functional collaboration across multiple business units and geographies
Ideal Candidate Profile
You operate with autonomy, anticipate issues before they escape, and bring structure to ambiguous, enterprise-scale problems. You’re comfortable owning outcomes without a direct reporting team, and you build trust quickly with business partners at every level.
