The Role Kyndryl Project Specialists play a critical role in delivering successful projects and programs to our Kyndryl customers. We support our customers’ transformation visions through the delivery of many interconnected, related projects.

As Project Specialist at Kyndryl, you will provide support for one or more projects at a time, often working within a project office environment, to deliver successful project outcomes to your customer. As the name implies, you will focus on a particular aspect of the project – such as planning, scheduling, or issue & risk tracking – as you build skills working under a project or program manager. As you build skills, you will move into other aspects of delivering a successful project, with a goal of preparing to lead projects on your own. You’re going to be meeting a lot of people, networking, and forging relationships. As part of our vibrant project management community, you will have opportunities to connect with your peers, sharing expertise both locally and globally.
