Technical Project Manager

About This Opportunity

We are representing a confidential enterprise SaaS organization seeking a Technical Project Manager to own the end-to-end delivery of complex software implementations. This is a client-facing role in the United Kingdom where you'll serve as the primary delivery owner for enterprise accounts, translating customer needs into executable plans and driving cross-functional teams from kickoff through go-live and stabilization.

You won't just track tasks—you'll understand the product deeply, engage in technical conversations with solution architects and engineers, lead business requirement sessions, and make the decisions that keep delivery on track. The ideal candidate thinks like an owner of the account, not a coordinator of it.

Responsibilities

• Own delivery end to end: Run enterprise implementation projects from kickoff through go-live and stabilization, accountable for scope, timeline, budget, quality, and client satisfaction on every engagement you lead
• Build and manage the plan: Break down complex, ambiguous requirements into clear project plans with phases, milestones, dependencies, and owners, keeping them current and making trade-offs visible when priorities shift
• Lead requirements gathering: Own business requirement sessions end to end, facilitating discovery workshops that surface what the client actually needs, documenting requirements in a structured format, managing sign-off, and keeping them traceable through design, build, and testing
• Run the cross-functional team: Coordinate solution architects, engineers, QA, and client stakeholders toward shared outcomes, removing blockers, resolving conflicts, and ensuring everyone knows what they own and by when
• Own the client relationship: Serve as the client's primary point of contact, leading status meetings, steering committee updates, and escalations, setting expectations early, and protecting the relationship even during difficult conversations
• Manage scope, risk, and change: Hold the line on scope creep, documenting and quantifying changes before work starts, and manage risks and issues proactively with early escalation
• Stay technical and report: Understand the architecture, integrations, and configuration decisions well enough to challenge estimates and speak credibly with engineers and technical buyers, while producing honest, easy-to-read status reports and executive updates

What We're Looking For

Required:

• 5+ years managing technical or software implementation projects, ideally in enterprise SaaS, professional services, or a client-facing delivery environment
• Track record of delivering complex, multi-stakeholder projects on time and within budget as the primary delivery owner for enterprise clients
• Technical fluency: ability to read solution designs, understand integrations and data flows, and hold your own in technical discussions without being the engineer
• Proven ability to run requirements and discovery sessions and translate them into clear, documented business requirements
• Solid command of project management fundamentals: planning, estimation, dependency management, risk and issue tracking, and change control
• Excellent communication and comfort presenting to senior and executive audiences
• Ability to manage scope, timelines, and difficult conversations without losing the relationship
• Organized and calm under pressure, with a preference to over-communicate rather than under-communicate
• Direct when a project needs a hard truth and diplomatic when a relationship needs care
• Ownership mindset focused on outcomes rather than process

Preferred:

• Earlier technical role (engineering, solution architecture, or implementation consulting)
• Experience delivering configurable enterprise platforms or workflow/automation software
• Fluency in both agile and traditional delivery with judgment to know when to use which
• Experience in a regulated or risk-sensitive domain
• PMP, PRINCE2, PSM, or equivalent certification
• Exposure to AI-assisted or modern delivery tooling
