About the Role

Eclipse Consulting is seeking Project Managers to lead complex, cross-functional initiatives within the Financial Services industry. These roles support enterprise-level programs across Risk, Data, Technology, and Operations, requiring a strong consulting mindset, exceptional communication, and the ability to align teams, including bandwidth-constrained stakeholders.

The ideal candidate brings deep Financial Services experience with exposure to capital markets, wholesale banking, asset management, or regulatory environments, along with a proven track record of delivering results in fast-moving, ambiguous, and high-pressure settings. These are senior, client-facing roles where you'll serve as a strategic partner and execution leader across multiple high-impact programs.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead end-to-end programs across multiple business, technology, and operations teams within Financial Services.
• Develop and manage program artifacts including RAID logs, project charters, workplans, governance routines, and steering committee materials.
• Coordinate closely with time-constrained or bandwidth-limited stakeholders, ensuring consistent communication and timely progress.
• Drive alignment across global regions and cross-functional teams, particularly for enterprise-wide or global initiatives.
• Manage critical dependencies, facilitate decisions, escalate issues appropriately, and ensure accountability across workstreams.
• Build strong stakeholder relationships within the first 30 days, establishing trust and credibility at all levels.
• Facilitate meetings, secure decisions and sign-offs, and ensure program milestones remain on track.
• Maintain alignment across data, process, and technology streams, ensuring cohesive and coordinated delivery.
• Navigate ambiguity, shifting priorities, and organizational resistance with persistence and professionalism.

Qualifications and Skills

• 5-10+ years of experience in Project Management, Program Management, or Senior Consulting roles.
• Prior experience in Financial Services, ideally within capital markets, wholesale banking, asset management, or risk/regulatory environments.
• Proven consulting background with strong client-facing skills, executive communication, and the ability to manage up to Directors, MDs, and global stakeholders.
• Strong experience running complex programs with multiple workstreams, competing priorities, and distributed stakeholders.
• Demonstrated ability to create and manage governance artifacts (charters, status decks, RAID logs, etc.).
• Ability to influence without authority, resolve conflicts, and move stakeholders toward decisions.
• Highly persistent, proactive, and comfortable operating in ambiguous or fast-changing environments.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to distill complex issues into clear, actionable updates.
• Strong organizational skills and ability to drive structure in unstructured environments.
