Job Description Senior Project Manager -SaaS Implementation - ATS/HRIS (Client Side)
6-month FTC (likely extending to 12) Central London, hybrid (2 days/week)
I'm recruiting a Senior Project Manager for a well-established London charitable social enterprise - 1,200 people across 40+ sites - building out a project delivery function.
You'd lead the end-to-end implementation of a new platform: vendor selection, requirements, configuration, data migration, UAT, training, rollout and adoption. Off-the-shelf SaaS, implemented properly - this is not a custom build.
What you'll own:
- The full delivery lifecycle: scope, plans, budgets, risks and dependencies, from discovery through to handover and post-go-live improvement
- Vendor selection, then the vendor relationship - contracts, commercials, invoices, and holding them to account on quality and timelines
- Proper governance: RAID logs, RAG reporting, roadmaps and weekly status reports, planned in MS Project or Smartsheet
- The BA work too - this is a small team, so you'll gather user requirements and map journeys, workflows and processes yourself
- Data migration involving sensitive personal data, with a genuine working understanding of GDPR and migration risk
- Change and adoption across an organisation that's new to project management - comms, training, and bringing people with you across 40+ sites
You'll need:
- Extensive experience and ownership of end-to-end SaaS implementation delivery (this is a senior role)
- HRIS/ATS implementation experience is highly advantageous
- Saas Implementation from the client side, not vendor
- Excellent knowledge of sensitive data, GDPR, data migration and integration (required)
- Waterfall delivery in structured, regulated or data-sensitive environments
- Real vendor management, including contract and budget ownership
- Exceptional documentation - statements of work, timing plans, process maps
- To be London-based and happy in the office 2 days a week (more during training and rollout), with a DBS check
Interviewing immediately. Please apply below.
