Programme Director – Enterprise Performance Management (EPM)

insightsoftware is a global provider of comprehensive solutions for the Office of the CFO. We believe an actionable business strategy begins and ends with accessible financial data. With solutions across financial planning and analysis (FP&A), accounting, and operations, we transform how teams operate, empowering leaders to make timely and informed decisions. With data at the heart of everything we do, insightsoftware enables automated processes, delivers trusted insights, boosts predictability, and increases productivity.

As a Programme Director, you will operate as both a regional project director and a senior solutions architect for our Planning, Budgeting & Financial Consolidation offerings. You will steer multiple concurrent customer programs from scoping through adoption while dedicating up to 50% of your time to pre‑sales activities that generate professional‑services revenue.

Partnering closely with Sales Directors, you will shape deal strategy, scope Statements of Work (SOWs), and present executive‑level delivery proposals. Internally, you will mentor and coach a team of Solution Architects and Consultants, safeguard delivery excellence, and own utilization and margin targets for your portfolio.
