About this role

When a project runs smoothly, it feels self-evident: goals clear, decisions comprehensible, risks controlled, and customers and team always informed. This mix of structure, communication, and delivery excites you? You fit perfectly with us.

You manage assigned software projects, typically 6-18 months long with 5-10 people, involving internal teams and customer contact. Steer by PMO standards, collaborate closely with development, product, and specialist teams, escalate to Senior PM or Program Manager as needed.

In daily project work, plan and steer end-to-end: scope, schedule, resources, risks, communication to keep everyone action-ready. Coordinate operations with development, product, specialist areas; clear dependencies, sync priorities, remove blockers. Communicate with internal/external stakeholders at working/sponsor levels: manage expectations, drive decisions, moderate meetings.

Regularly create reliable project reporting: status reports, risk lists, progress docs – transparent and actionable. Maintain active risk register, track issues, derive measures, escalate timely to Senior PM/Head of PMO. Use PMO templates/tools consistently, contribute structured improvements and lessons learned for ongoing standards development.
