Project Manager

About the Role

We are seeking a strategic and technically fluent Project Manager to lead complex Web and CMS digital transformation initiatives. In this role, you will oversee the full project lifecycle — from discovery and solution design to development, launch, and post-launch optimization.

You will manage cross-functional teams including strategists, UX designers, architects, developers, and QA specialists while serving as the primary point of contact for enterprise clients.

This is an exciting opportunity for a delivery leader who thrives in fast-paced digital environments, understands modern web architecture and CMS ecosystems, and can balance technical complexity with commercial accountability. You will report to the Delivery Director and play a key role in driving successful, scalable digital platform implementations.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead end-to-end delivery of enterprise-scale Web and CMS projects (replatforming, multi-site, headless implementations)
• Manage project scope, budgets, schedules, and profitability
• Facilitate discovery workshops and translate business requirements into actionable delivery plans
• Develop detailed project plans, timelines, RAID logs, and status reporting
• Oversee resource planning, forecasting, and estimate-to-completion tracking
• Identify and mitigate risks related to integrations, content migration, and technical architecture
• Participate in pre-sales activities including RFP responses, scoping, and SOW development
• Build strong client relationships and identify opportunities for growth and expansion
• Drive continuous improvement of project governance and delivery processes

What we are looking for

Must-Have:

• 6+ years of Project Management experience in a digital agency or consulting environment
• Proven experience delivering enterprise Web and CMS implementations (e.g., Drupal, AEM, Sitecore, headless CMS)
• Strong understanding of modern web architecture and multi-platform integrations
• Experience managing large client-facing teams and complex project logistics
• Demonstrated financial management experience including revenue forecasting and margin tracking
• Expertise in Agile and hybrid Agile/Waterfall delivery models
• Excellent stakeholder written and verbal communication skills across business and technical audiences

Nice-to-Have:

• Business analysis or requirements management experience
• PMP, PMI-ACP, or Scrum Master certification
• Experience working with global distributed teams
• Familiarity with marketing technology ecosystems and digital governance

Who you are

• You are commercially minded and understand the financial drivers of digital delivery
• You are technically credible and comfortable engaging with architects and developers
• You bring structure and clarity to complex, multi-workstream programs
• You are proactive in identifying risks and solving problems before they escalate
• You build trusted, long-term client relationships
• You continuously seek opportunities to improve processes and delivery excellence
