## Description

At Schwab, you're empowered to make an impact on your career. Here, innovative thought meets creative problem solving, helping us challenge the status quo and transform the finance industry together.

We believe in the importance of in-office collaboration and fully intend for the selected candidate for this role to work on site in the specified location(s).

The Schwab Technology Services (STS) Portfolio & Project Management (PPM) organization partners with business and technology leaders to prioritize and execute the work that drives Schwab's most important strategic initiatives.

As an IT Project Manager you will lead medium to large-scale, cross-functional programs that enable business growth, technology modernization, operational excellence, and enterprise transformation. Your ability to build trusted partnerships, align diverse stakeholders, and drive outcomes will directly influence the successful delivery of high-impact initiatives across the firm.

In this role, you will orchestrate complex project delivery from planning through execution, ensuring strategic objectives are achieved within established scope, budget, quality, and timeline expectations.
