Beacon Technologies is seeking a Program Manager for our client partner. We have an immediate need for a seasoned Executive-Facing Business Program Manager for Project Harmony for an onsite role in Raleigh, NC. The existing Business Program Manager role has shifted to two critical path new Projects, and in discussions with our client's Executives, they feel that the Program Manager will be best served on the ground in Raleigh where the Senior Management Team resides.
- This resource will interact directly with the C-Suite at the Bank on an hourly basis, as well as their direct functional leads.
- The resource must be willing to be in-office in Raleigh at least 3 days a week (flexible if things come up occasionally, but on average).
- They must be a strong driver, a truly exceptional communicator, and have a deep background creating executive-level materials such as drafting Board Decks, Executive Status, and top-level Decision documents.

- Microsoft Project experience is a must, Microsoft Project Server experience is a plus. Financial background, particularly in Banking is a must.
- This person must have demonstrated experience in managing programs directly, not a Business or IT leader, but a career Program Manager.
- We have an IT Program Manager, so this resource will focus primarily on managing program-level topics across the following:
PMs on Business Operations, Finance and Treasury, Compliance/BSA/AML, Risk, HR and Org, and Operational Change Management. The Project Management team’s work in this space centers on new policies, procedures, controls, functional definition, User Acceptance Testing, and tracking of any manual processes that may result from defect management. - Examples:
- Ensuring all business projects in the program are managing their dependencies with each other.
- Catching any work items that do not neatly fall into any of the existing projects to insure no missed scope.
- Driving solutions that cross multiple Harmony projects.
- Leading/supporting the project team members with consistent decisioning criteria/policy and approach for faster/more effective decision-making.
- Assisting/supporting with project work (and decisions) at the IHC or other LE level, allowing the existing PMs time to focus on the scope within their projects.
