Project Manager (with security control experience)

Project Manager (with security control experience) Role Overview We are looking for a mid-level Project Manager with a general understanding of security, compliance, and risk management to join Client's growing team. This is not a deep technical security role — we are seeking someone who brings a security-aware mindset to project execution: someone who understands data privacy, vendor risk, and compliance considerations as they relate to managing cross‑functional digital and operational projects. Key Responsibilities Lead and manage cross‑functional projects from initiation through delivery, ensuring timelines, budgets, and stakeholder expectations are met. Apply a security‑aware approach to project planning — identifying compliance, data privacy, and vendor risk requirements early in the project lifecycle. Coordinate with IT, legal, and security teams to ensure projects align with GDPR, CCPA, and internal data governance policies. Facilitate agile ceremonies including sprint planning, standups, retrospectives, and sprint reviews. Maintain project documentation, risk registers, and status reporting for stakeholders and leadership. Manage third‑party vendor onboarding processes, including basic security review coordination. Drive continuous improvement in project delivery processes and tools. Collaborate with marketing, technology, and operations teams on digital and e‑commerce initiatives. Required Qualifications 4–7 years of experience in project or program management roles. Hands‑on experience working with Security Controls — including implementing, monitoring, or managing controls within a project or operational context. Demonstrated understanding of security‑adjacent concepts: data privacy (GDPR, CCPA), vendor risk management, and compliance frameworks at a project level. Proven ability to manage cross‑functional projects in a fast‑paced environment. Experience working with e‑commerce, D2C, consumer goods, CPG, or beauty/lifestyle brands preferred. Proficiency with project management tools such as Jira, Asana, Smartsheet, or MS Project. Strong communication, stakeholder management, and problem‑solving skills. Comfortable working in a hybrid environment with in‑office presence 2–3 days per week in San Francisco, CA. Preferred Qualifications PMP, PMI‑ACP, CSM (Certified Scrum Master), or CSPO certification. Experience working with or within Unilever or similar global CPG/beauty conglomerates. Familiarity with privacy‑by‑design principles in project execution. Exposure to martech, digital transformation, or e‑commerce platform projects. #J-18808-Ljbffr Phizenix
