Senior Project Manager & Transformation Coach

Banyan Software is a company focused on acquiring and growing software businesses in specialized industries. They are seeking a transformational leader to build ASI's Project Management Office and lead cross-functional change initiatives that will define the company’s next chapter.

Responsibilities:

• Build the PMO from the Ground Up: Design and implement ASI’s project management frameworks, tools, workflows, and governance where none currently exist
• Lead Cross-Functional Transformation Initiatives: Own projects spanning Salesforce optimization, technology modernization, business events, and client change management simultaneously
• Drive End-to-End Execution: Take projects from scoping and stakeholder alignment through delivery, measurement, and sustained adoption, with full ownership of outcomes
• Present to Executive Leadership & Investors: Communicate project status, risks, and outcomes directly to the CEO, board, and investors on a regular basis
• Enable Business Teams to Execute: Coach and support talented employees who are running cross-functional projects alongside their day jobs without formal PM infrastructure or dedicated time
• Champion the Technology Modernization Agenda: Drive a multi-year transition from legacy infrastructure (remote desktop banking environments) to modern, cloud-based operations
• Eliminate Organizational Bottlenecks: Identify process gaps and build lightweight, scalable solutions that keep pace with a nimble organization, without creating bureaucracy
• Own the Salesforce Transformation: Immediately take charge of a complex Salesforce initiative requiring coordination across multiple business stakeholders with competing priorities
• Drive Organizational Change Management: Lead client-facing change management initiatives, ensuring seamless adoption of new processes, systems, and workflows

Requirements:

• 7–10 years of project management experience in financial services or banking, with demonstrated scope across multiple business functions
• Background from smaller, multi-function financial organizations, not narrow-scope delivery roles at large corporate banks. You have seen and driven organizational scale firsthand
• Proven track record building PM infrastructure from scratch, frameworks, workflows, and governance — in environments without an established PMO
• Demonstrated ability to manage projects spanning CRM/technology platforms, business operations, and client-facing change management at the same time
• Strong business acumen, you connect project outcomes to revenue, risk, and client impact, not just delivery milestones
• Exceptional communicator comfortable presenting to C-suite executives, board members, and investors
• Self-starter with an ownership mindset, you drive outcomes independently, not just document and coordinate. You create structure in ambiguity
• Quantifiable achievements that demonstrate organizational impact: examples may include supporting ARR growth ($5M to $20M), documented process savings ($500K–$2M), or successful large-scale technology migrations
• Agnostic on methodology, Agile, Waterfall, or hybrid. You focus on outcomes, not process labels, and adapt your approach to fit the organization's pace
