Location: Remote (U.S.-based; 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM EST preferred)
Duration: Project-based contract (Targeting July 2026 - May 2027)
Compensation Range: $50 - 58 per hour
An industry-leading, global financial services organization is seeking a senior-level, project-based Marketing Project Manager to drive the internal execution of a highly strategic corporate rebranding initiative. This high-visibility project involves unifying our brand architecture and aligning multiple business segments into a cohesive parent brand structure.
Reporting directly to the VP of Brand & CX (with dotted-line reporting to the CMO), you will act as a hands-on lead and player-coach. You will personally manage two of the project's three major internal workstreams while guiding the daily workloads of two Project Coordinators. We are looking for a highly autonomous, senior PM with an enterprise-scale mindset and a low-ego approach-someone equally comfortable facilitating high-stakes alignment with executive leaders as they are handling tactical administration.
Client Profile: Leading, multi-billion-dollar enterprise within the insurance/financial services space.
Responsibilities:
- Workstream Leadership: Drive end-to-end execution of rebrand initiatives, managing two primary internal rebrand workstreams from initial charters to final rollout.
- Team Guidance: Mentor and manage the day-to-day project workloads and deliverables for two internal Project Coordinators.
- Executive Reporting: Deliver weekly status updates and monthly performance reporting to the VP of Brand & CX and the CMO.
- Cross-Functional Coordination: Partner closely with an external third-party vendor PM and internal IT PM to align cross-functional dependencies, risks, and timelines.
- PMO Documentation: Maintain "audit-ready" project artifacts (charters, status reports, detailed schedules, risk logs) using Smartsheet and Confluence.
- Meeting Facilitation: Lead project meetings (kickoffs, risk reviews), document outcomes, and drive accountability across distributed teams.
Qualifications:
- Mandatory Sector Background: 7+ years of project management experience, including direct experience within Insurance, Wholesale Brokerage, Financial Services, or Banking.
- Must have experience navigating highly regulated corporate matrix environments.
- Senior-Level Expertise: Proven track record of owning large-scale, complex initiatives end-to-end. (This role is not suited for startup or boutique agency backgrounds).
- Team Leadership: Proven ability to manage, assign tasks to, and guide junior project management or coordinator talent.
- Traditional/Hybrid Frameworks: Strong grounding in structured project management practices (PMI/PMBOK-style processes, structured artifacts).
- High Autonomy & Low Ego: A true team player comfortable working independently to make sound decisions, who views no tactical task (like note-taking or scheduling) as beneath them.
Preferred Experience:
- Prior experience contributing to corporate rebranding, brand architecture consolidation, or M&A integrations.
- Background managing marketing, creative, or digital projects (experience with DAM system rollouts or workflow routing tools is a major plus).
- Hands-on Tool Mastery: High proficiency with Smartsheet (for detailed scheduling/dependency tracking) and Confluence. Experience with MS 365 Stack; JIRA is a plus.
Logistics & Environment
- Working Hours: Core hours of 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM EST preferred to align with East Coast leadership.
- Equipment Provided: A comprehensive remote hardware package will be provided (Company laptop, dual monitors, docking station, and accessories).
