The Cybersecurity Project Manager works with technical specialists to complete cybersecurity projects for their organization. This includes defining the scope of a project, creating and managing the project plan, identifying key stakeholders, managing the budget, ensuring all work is compliant with the relevant security standards, and completing the project within the deadline.

A Cybersecurity Project Manager can work on a temporary or full-time basis, depending on the nature of the project they’re working on. Often Project Managers will need to work in fast-paced environments and with short turnarounds. These professionals will need to use the right project management and productivity tools such as Trello, Asana, Monday, ClickUp, and more, to manage their teams and ensure that deadlines are met.
