Job Description

Posted on: February 25, 2026

This opportunity is open for 100% remote. Candidates should be comfortable working in CST.

Project Manager- Remote

  • We are seeking an experienced Program / Project Manager to lead and manage enterprise Identity Governance (IGA) initiatives. This role will drive delivery across multiple concurrent workstreams including application onboarding, platform integrations, regulatory controls, and automation initiatives.
  • The ideal candidate brings strong program governance discipline, structured planning capability, and the ability to translate complex technical efforts into clear, executive-ready reporting. This role ensures IGA initiatives are delivered on time, within scope, and aligned to regulatory and operational objectives.

Key Responsibilities

  • Program & Workstream Management
  • Manage multiple parallel IGA workstreams (e.g., platform deployment, application onboarding, integrations, access reviews, automation).
  • Develop and maintain detailed Work Breakdown Structures (WBS) with clear milestones, deliverables, and ownership.
  • Maintain a fully integrated program plan aligning technical, compliance, and operational activities.
  • Drive weekly cadence meetings and ensure cross-functional alignment across security, IT, HR, and application teams.
  • Planning & Governance
  • Maintain and continuously update:
  • Integrated master schedule
  • Risk register with mitigation strategies
  • Dependency matrix across systems, vendors, and internal teams
  • Decision and action logs
  • Proactively identify and manage risks, scope changes, and timeline impacts.
  • Ensure regulatory and control-related milestones are built into delivery plans.
  • Executive Reporting & Communication
  • Generate structured, outcome-focused executive status reports (What / So What / Now What format).
  • Provide clear visibility into schedule variance, risks, resource constraints, and financial impact.
  • Translate technical program updates into business-relevant insights for leadership.
  • Capacity & Resource Planning
  • Support resource planning across engineering, architecture, compliance, and testing teams.
  • Conduct capacity analysis to identify bottlenecks and forecast staffing needs.
  • Align vendor and internal resource allocation to prioritized workstreams.
  • Support budget tracking and forecasting for IGA initiatives.
  • Quality & Delivery Assurance
  • Ensure deliverables meet defined acceptance criteria before stage-gate progression.
  • Track dependencies across HR systems, directories, application teams, and third-party vendors.
  • Support UAT planning and production readiness coordination.
  • Drive continuous improvement in program governance processes.

Required Qualifications

  • 7+ years of experience in Program or Project Management, preferably in Cybersecurity, IAM, or enterprise platforms.
  • Proven experience managing large, cross-functional technology programs.
  • Strong experience creating and managing detailed WBS and integrated project plans.
  • Demonstrated experience maintaining risk registers and dependency matrices.
  • Experience supporting capacity planning and resource forecasting.
  • Strong executive communication and reporting skills.
  • Proficiency in project management tools (e.g., MS Project, Smartsheet, Jira, or similar).

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience managing Identity Governance (IGA) or IAM implementations (e.g., Saviynt, SailPoint, or similar platforms).
  • Experience in regulated environments (SOX, ITGC, or other compliance-driven programs).
  • PMP, PgMP, or equivalent certification.
  • Experience working with enterprise integrations (HR systems, Active Directory, ServiceNow).
