Intermediate Project Manager

• A project manager with 8 to 12 years of experience, including at least 3 years in a large-scale transformation program within the banking or life insurance sector.
  


• The candidate must have led complex projects from start to finish (scope, budget, risks, stakeholders, closure) and coordinated the integration of several interdependent workstreams.
  


• The ideal candidate is autonomous, drives deliverables without follow-up, and takes initiative in an ambiguous environment.
  


• On-site presence 2 days/week is required and non-negotiable.
  


• Experience as a program PO (cross-functional backlog, multi-workstream perspective) is an asset but not a selection criterion.
