We are seeking an experienced Client Implementation Project Manager to lead and manage multiple client implementations from kickoff through successful launch. This role will serve as a primary point of contact for clients, partnering closely with internal product, engineering, operations, and implementation teams to ensure projects stay on track, risks are identified early, and clients have a strong implementation experience.

The ideal candidate will have 3–5 years of project or implementation management experience, a proven track record of managing 10 client implementation projects, and experience working within FinTech, financial services, banking, payments, or a related financial technology environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own the end-to-end implementation lifecycle for multiple clients, from kickoff through go-live and transition to ongoing support.
  • Serve as the primary day-to-day point of contact for clients throughout the implementation process.
  • Manage 15 client implementations simultaneously, balancing competing priorities, timelines, resources, and client expectations.
  • Develop and maintain detailed project plans, milestones, timelines, action items, and implementation deliverables.
  • Lead client kickoff meetings, status meetings, working sessions, and go-live readiness meetings.
  • Partner cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Operations, Support, Compliance, and other internal teams to drive successful implementations.
  • Translate client requirements and business needs into clear internal action items and implementation plans.
  • Identify project risks, dependencies, blockers, and scope changes and proactively develop solutions.
  • Manage client expectations around timelines, requirements, dependencies, and potential roadblocks.
  • Track project progress and provide clear status updates to both clients and internal stakeholders.
  • Coordinate testing, configuration, data/integration requirements, training, and go-live activities as applicable.
  • Ensure implementation documentation and project artifacts are accurate and up to date.
  • Facilitate issue resolution by bringing the appropriate internal teams together and driving issues through completion.
  • Continuously look for opportunities to improve implementation processes, documentation, and the overall client experience.

Required Qualifications

  • 3–5 years of experience in project management, implementation management, client delivery, or a related role.
  • Proven experience managing 15 client implementation projects, ideally simultaneously or within a high-volume client environment.
  • Strong client-facing experience with the ability to build relationships, lead meetings, manage expectations, and communicate effectively with stakeholders.
  • Experience in FinTech, financial services, banking, payments, lending, insurance, or another financial technology environment.
  • Demonstrated experience managing projects from initial kickoff through implementation and go-live.
  • Strong project planning, organization, prioritization, and time-management skills.
  • Experience working cross-functionally with technical and non-technical teams.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to proactively identify and resolve project risks.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment with multiple competing priorities.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience implementing SaaS, financial technology, payments, or enterprise software solutions.
  • Experience working with APIs, integrations, data migrations, or other technical implementation components.
  • Experience with Agile/Scrum environments.
  • Familiarity with project management tools such as Jira, Monday.com, Asana, Smartsheet, or similar platforms.
  • Experience working with enterprise or B2B clients.
  • Experience developing implementation playbooks, processes, or best practices.
