General Description

The Resource Management Coordinator is the operational heartbeat of our Professional Services delivery organization. You’ll orchestrate the complex dance of matching the right consultants with the right engagements. Reporting to the Manager of the Corporate PMO, you’ll ensure our consultants are efficiently deployed, projects are properly staffed, and our delivery teams have what they need to succeed.

This role sits at the critical intersection of sales pipeline, resource capacity, and delivery excellence. If you thrive on optimization, love solving the puzzle of resource allocation, and want to directly enable the success of high-stakes security engagements, this is your opportunity.

What Makes You Successful in This Role:

You’re a natural optimizer who sees resource allocation as a strategic puzzle to solve, not just a scheduling exercise. You balance data-driven decision making with human factors by understanding that behind every utilization percentage is a person with career goals and work-life balance needs. You’re comfortable saying “no” when necessary and can clearly explain trade-offs to stakeholders. You don’t wait for perfect information; you make smart decisions with the data available and adjust as circumstances evolve. Most importantly, you understand that your success is measured by enabling consultants to do their best work on engagements where they’ll make the biggest impact.
