LaSalle Network is hiring for a Project Manager to join a growing Security and Risk portfolio led by a dynamic Portfolio Lead in Chicago. This is not a heads-down technical security role — it’s a highly visible Project Manager opportunity supporting business risk initiatives within a maturing, structured PMO environment.
This Project Manager will step into a portfolio with a strong foundation: standardized plans, clear deliverables and an established playbook. The focus? Tactical execution, risk mitigation and executive-ready communication. If you’re a Project Manager who thrives in structured, waterfall-driven environments and can balance multiple initiatives with precision, we want to talk.
What’s the job?
-
Lead 1–4 concurrent initiatives (ideally 2) within the Security and Risk portfolio
-
Manage detailed project schedules, milestones and executive reporting
-
Drive stakeholder communications across business and security teams
-
Ensure alignment to PMO standards and methodology
-
Monitor business risk factors and escalate appropriately
-
Coordinate cross-functional delivery with Chicago-based teams
-
Support phased program execution with long-term continuity
What’s needed?
-
5+ years of experience as a Project Manager
-
Exposure to security-focused initiatives (not a security architect role)
-
Strong waterfall project management experience; some agile exposure preferred
-
Exceptional scheduling and documentation skills
-
Executive presence and polished communication style
-
Detail-oriented and risk-measured approach
-
Ability to work CST hours
What’s in it for me?
-
~$75/hour compensation
-
Medical, Dental and Vision insurance
-
Opportunity to support a high-visibility Security and Risk portfolio
-
Potential for long-term engagement and conversion consideration
-
Direct exposure to senior leadership
