What you'll do
- Manage 15-20 active mid-market implementations at a time (8-10 weeks implementation timeline on average), building each customer's project plan from handoff through go-live, and staying on top of timelines, hurdles, and follow-up
- Get comfortable with how the products work to troubleshoot and advise instead of just walking through a checklist
- Advise on what's worked well for similar customers, challenge assumptions when appropriate, and recommend configurations and workflows that balance customer needs with implementation best practices
- Partner closely with cross-functional partners, especially Sales and CS to ensure a seamless customer journey, and Product/Engineering to flag real issues and align on a path forward
- Own the execution of a project plan, not just its design
- Iterate and improve on existing processes

- Proven track record successfully managing concurrent mid-market implementation projects without compromising quality, customer experience, or timelines
- Experience operating with real autonomy and owning implementation project plans end-to-end
- Comfortable getting into the weeds of complex, multi-module software and building genuine fluency in how it all fits together
- Resourceful when there's no documented answer; do your own testing and discovery, then use what you learn to advise customers on best practices and recommendations
- Data-driven and detail-oriented, with a genuine instinct for coaching customers through unfamiliar territory
- Ability to carry more than a handful of accounts at once (high volume role)
- Ability to independently investigate complex customer questions and become the technical/product subject matter expert during implementations
