Company Overview
At Kyndryl, we design, build, manage and modernize the mission‑critical technology systems that the world depends on every day. We are always moving forward – always pushing ourselves to go further in our efforts to build a more equitable, inclusive world for our employees, our customers and our communities.
The Role
Kyndryl Project Managers oversee the delivery of major projects within scope, schedule, and budget. You’re the driving force for every aspect of a program’s success, the “conductor” who orchestrates everyone’s efforts to make beautiful music together. As the single point of contact to the client, you’ll also be the living embodiment of Kyndryl’s reputation every day.
As Project Manager, you have a very full and detail‑oriented calendar. You’ll construct detailed project plans, manage teams, lead meetings, status calls, and planning and cadence meetings. You will analyze and mitigate risks, manage finances, ensure the team has the right skills, then plan and delegate activity to hit deadlines, deliver on SLAs, and delight our clients. Plans often evolve, so you’ll need continuous structural thinking and ownership for value delivery.
Communication is 90% of the job. You’re the single point of contact with the client, partners, and all stakeholders, supporting them and ensuring they get what they need. You’re also the bridge to every other team on the project, including technical and account roles. The result is an exciting multicultural, often multilingual environment. You need to enjoy interactions with people, be kind, empathetic, assertive, and handle customer change requests with diplomacy.
You’ll meet many people, network, and forge relationships. Our “one team with the customer” concept means you’ll develop strong partnerships with the client and elsewhere. Some projects or clients involve “embedding” with the client at their location, giving you visibility and opportunity to add value to the relationship. This is one of the things Kyndryl loves about working here; it’s a great way to hone service and people skills and lays the groundwork for later career growth.
Career Growth
Becoming a Project Manager at Kyndryl is an excellent gateway to many different paths. You’ll create a well‑rounded skill set while gaining professional certifications and qualifications. You can evolve horizontally into other technical or non‑technical areas such as Technical Service Architect, or move vertically to become a senior project manager or program manager. There are many different types and flavors of PM roles, so everyone can find the opportunity that suits them best.

This dedication to welcoming everyone means that Kyndryl gives you – and everyone next to you – the ability to bring your whole self to work, individually and collectively, and support the activation of our equitable culture. That’s the Kyndryl Way.
