Bridgewater, NJ, United States VDart Full time
Job Title: Senior Project Manager

Duration: 12 mos+

Location: Onsite in Bridgewater, NJ 3 days / week

What client needs:
• A methodology-driven Senior PM who can run multiple security/GRC workstreams simultaneously, not a cyber engineer or hands-on security SME.
• Someone who can operate in a regulated pharma/medical device environment and manage compliance-driven projects (FDA, SOX, GDPR, audit remediation, risk reporting).
• A polished communicator with strong stakeholder management, executive reporting, and the ability to support a CISO organization at the enterprise level.

Ideal fit:
  • Senior PM (8-15 yrs) with heavy PMO/methodology, governance, and structured program delivery.
  • Has run multi-track security, GRC, or risk remediation initiatives (IAM, cloud, audit findings, vulnerability mgmt, regulatory readiness).
  • Pharma/life sciences PM experience is a big plus - they want someone who knows FDA/SOX/GxP timelines and documentation culture.
  • Polished, executive-facing, great at decks, steering committees, and CISO-level reporting.
  • Someone who's used to working with Legal/Compliance, Internal Audit, Infrastructure, Apps, vendors, etc.
  • Doesn't need deep technical cyber expertise; must excel at structure, communication, governance, and delivery.
***Think more Methodology focused PM that can work on multiple workstreams at one time than an expert in Security or Risk Management

  • Strong understanding of cybersecurity domains: IAM, SIEM, cloud security, vulnerability management, data governance, incident response.
  • Proven success managing multi-workstream programs with cross-functional technical teams.
  • Exceptional communication, executive reporting, and stakeholder-management skills.
