About the position

TEKsystems' client is seeking a Technical Project Manager for a contract role within the Global Risk Analytics (GRA) function. GRA operates under the Global Risk Management (GRM) umbrella and is tasked with developing a consistent and coherent set of models and analytical tools for effective risk and capital measurement, management, and reporting. This role is crucial as GRA collaborates with various Lines of Business and Enterprise functions to ensure that its models and analytics meet both internal and regulatory requirements, including quarterly Enterprise Stress Testing (EST), the annual Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review (CCAR), and the Current Expected Credit Losses (CECL) accounting standard. The models developed by GRA follow an iterative and ongoing development life cycle, adapting to the evolving nature of portfolios, economic conditions, and emerging risks. In addition to model development, GRA is involved in model implementation, data management, model execution and analysis, forecast administration, and model performance monitoring. The team is dedicated to driving innovation, process improvement, and automation across all these activities. The Consumer Operations & GRA Strategy team, part of GRA, is responsible for strategic planning and delivery of major initiatives, program and project planning, and data management and model execution. This team plays a pivotal role in establishing a coherent model risk management framework and infrastructure across GRA, including the development of a universal platform for seamless model development and implementation. They also focus on improving the quality and consistency of data sourced for all development and production purposes, ensuring that GRA addresses internal and regulatory requirements in a strategic and proactive manner. As a Project Manager within the GRA Strategy team, you will lead the build-out and adoption of GRA's Strategic Operating Platform, which supports production processes for generating forecasts and assessing model performance. This high-profile role requires engagement and delivery at every project stage, from requirement definition and process design to development and testing. The candidate must be adept at transitioning from detailed technical discussions to strategic perspectives, given the exposure to Senior Management.
