Project manager in information security

The Project Manager, Information Security is a delivery-focused role responsible for planning and driving technical security projects across IQVIA’s global Information Security organization. IQVIA is investing in new security platforms and capabilities to protect a global workforce, a large software development community, and a growing portfolio of acquired businesses. Delivering those investments on time, and with real adoption, requires strong project leadership across many teams, regions, and functions.

• Plan and manage technical security projects end to end, defining scope, objectives, milestones, resourcing, and success criteria in partnership with project sponsors and technical leads.
• Build and maintain integrated project plans and schedules, tracking dependencies across security, infrastructure, networking, and application teams, and keeping delivery on track against committed timelines.
• Coordinate platform deployments that depend on development team adoption, including onboarding waves, integration with source code and CI/CD systems, and follow-through with engineering teams to drive coverage and usage.
• Manage workforce-facing rollouts of security capabilities, including pilot groups, phased deployment waves, regional sequencing, rollback planning, and go/no-go decisions.
• Lead change management for rollouts that affect end users, including communications plans, user guidance, training materials, and service desk readiness, in partnership with end-user computing and communications teams.
• Maintain RAID logs (risks, assumptions, issues, and dependencies), identifying delivery risks early and driving mitigation and escalation to resolution.
• Track project budgets, purchase orders, and vendor deliverables and milestones, working with procurement and finance and flagging variances to project sponsors.
• Coordinate with vendors and professional services partners on implementation plans, statements of work, and delivery milestones.
• Prepare materials for steering committees and leadership reviews, including status, decisions required, risks, and recommendations.
• Maintain portfolio-level reporting across Information Security projects, giving leadership clear visibility into status, health, resourcing, and upcoming milestones.
• Support projects involving acquired businesses, coordinating security integration activities, extending security platform coverage to acquired environments, and aligning timelines with broader integration programs.
• Coordinate cross-functional delivery of data security initiatives, such as data discovery and classification deployments, involving data owners, platform teams, Privacy, and Legal.
• Manage project work in Atlassian tools (Jira and Confluence) and ServiceNow, maintaining accurate plans, documentation, and change records aligned with IQVIA change management processes.
• Capture lessons learned and contribute to repeatable delivery practices, templates, and standards for Information Security projects.

• 5–7 years of professional experience, including at least 3 years managing technical, infrastructure, or IT projects in a global or matrixed organization.
• Proven track record of delivering projects end to end, including planning, scheduling, dependency management, risk and issue management, and project closure.
• Working understanding of information security concepts — such as application security, network and web security, zero-trust access, cloud security, and data protection — sufficient to engage credibly with engineers and architects.
• Experience coordinating technical deployments across multiple teams, such as infrastructure, networking, cloud, application development, and end-user computing.
• Experience managing enterprise rollouts that affect end users, including pilots, phased deployments, communications, and service desk readiness.
• Experience tracking project budgets, purchase orders, and vendor deliverables, and working with procurement and finance teams.
• Experience preparing steering committee and executive status reporting, with the ability to present risks, decisions, and trade-offs clearly and concisely.
• Hands-on experience with Atlassian tools (Jira and Confluence) and ServiceNow for project tracking, documentation, and change management.
• Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to build alignment across technical teams, business stakeholders, and vendors without direct authority.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills in English, with the ability to work effectively across a global, matrixed organization.
• Будет плюсом: Background in security projects, such as security platform deployments, network security transformations, or M&A integration, is preferred; Experience in healthcare, life sciences, or other regulated environments is an advantage; Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Business, or equivalent practical experience is preferred; Project management certifications such as PMP, PRINCE2, or Scrum/Agile are preferred
