Senior Project Manager | Bankrate

Red Ventures • Fort Mill, SC

10h • Hybrid

About The Position

This role is open to remote or hybrid candidates (East Coast preference), with hybrid being central to our New York, NY or Charlotte area offices. Must be able to work Eastern Standard Time hours. Bankrate is seeking a dynamic, innovative Senior Project Manager to lead the successful onboarding and expansion of our large enterprise partnerships. Sitting within the Customer Success organization, you will serve as the strategic "nerve center" coordinating high-visibility projects across technical, creative, and business teams. You are not just tracking tasks; you are architecting the implementation of tools, systems, and integrations that drive growth for the world’s leading financial institutions.

Requirements

• 5-8 years of Project Management experience, ideally in a customer-facing SaaS or Financial Services environment.
• Proficiency in Asana, Slack, and Google Workspace.
• Solid Understanding of the software development life cycle and creative production workflows.
• Exceptional presentation skills; comfortable navigating complex conversations with external enterprise stakeholders and C-suite executives.
• Demonstrated judgment and negotiation skills—you know when to push back and when to pivot to meet aggressive timelines.
• A motivated leader who thrives in a team environment with representatives from multiple functional disciplines.

Responsibilities

• Lead cross-functional plans for delivering complex integrations and systems that drive growth for enterprise partners. Own the project lifecycle from discovery to "go-live."
• Partner with business stakeholders to prioritize long-term strategic initiatives against short-term tactical needs, ensuring alignment with Bankrate’s financial services goals.
• Lead meetings between engineering, product, legal and commercial teams to track milestones, manage dependencies, and ensure the "Bankrate experience" is delivered flawlessly to the customer.
• Assertively hold all internal and external parties accountable to strategic goals. Discover the "true requirements" underlying partner requests and recommend alternative process approaches when necessary.
• Build and maintain self-organizing systems using Jira, Asana, and Dashboards.
• Anticipate bottlenecks, provide escalation management, and make trade-offs that balance business benefit with technical debt. Identify interdependencies across concurrent projects to prevent downstream collisions.
• Provide regular progress reporting and tracking on all workstreams to senior leadership, acting as the primary point of contact for project health
