Daily Job Market Scan — 2026-04-23

Date: 2026-04-23 Cadence: Daily Scope: Job market scan for Mathew Lindholm's transition research. O*NET codes 13-1082.00, 11-3021.00, 11-9199.00, 11-3051.00 near 55082 + target employers + CareerOneStop. Filtered against compensation tiers and role exclusions per profile.md.

Summary

Moderate market activity today. One notable new high-fit role surfaced: 3M Director of Cyber and Technology Risk Oversight at $228K–$279K (remote-eligible, Maplewood MN), which directly matches the GRC/risk target family and hits the hands-on tier comp floor. Several roles previously tracked have gone dark — the US Bank roles are churning quickly, with multiple PM and risk roles showing as closed today. The Washington County IT PMO Manager (ID 015) closed on 4/12 and is confirmed expired. Two new roles at Thrivent are worth flagging despite being slightly outside the primary target families. The Twin Cities PM/risk market continues to see turnover at US Bank specifically.

Roles That Dropped Off

ID 015: IT PMO Manager — Washington County MN → CLOSED

  • Days on market: ~23 days (first seen 3/20, closed 4/12)
  • Notes: Closing date of 4/12/2026 has passed. This was a strong local fit. Marking as closed.

Additional US Bank churn observed (not previously tracked):

  • Senior Program/Project Manager (Corp Functions & Risk) — Closed (was live briefly)
  • Senior Project Manager — Custody/Investment Services — Closed
  • Implementation Project Manager — Closed
  • Elan Digital Project Manager — Closed
  • Project Manager — Workplace/Campus/Goals Coach — Closed
  • AI/ML Deployment and Enablement Leader — Closed
  • Senior Audit PM — Digital Assets/Money Movement/AI — Closed
  • Technology Risk Manager (Hopkins) — Closed

US Bank is churning heavily — roles are opening and closing within days. This suggests either rapid hiring fills or reclassification. The risk/PM roles that remain (IDs 008, 009, 018, 019) should be watched for sudden closure.

Market Trend Note

Twin Cities PM/risk market is active but high-velocity. US Bank in particular is posting and closing roles within 1–3 days, which suggests either fast fills or internal reorganization. The 3M Director of Cyber and Technology Risk Oversight role (ID 021) is the strongest new find — it's a director-level GRC role with explicit military transition language and comp well above the hands-on floor. Xcel Energy remains the most stable employer with multiple PM roles sitting open for weeks. Washington County's IT PMO role has now closed — this was a strong local fit that's no longer available. The defense contractor space (Leidos, Booz Allen, SAIC) remains stagnant for new remote-eligible PM roles matching the profile — SAIC's previous PM Senior role (ID 012) closed, and no new SAIC roles meeting criteria were found.

The most significant development this scan is the 3M Director of Cyber and Technology Risk Oversight role — this is the first director-level GRC role in the target employer list, and it explicitly welcomes military transition candidates.
