Summary Generated by Built In

About the role:

MotorK's largest customers - enterprise dealer groups, multi-brand retailers, OEMs - run some of the most complex platform deployments in our business. We're looking for someone to lead that portfolio: not just delivering individual projects, but owning the full picture across every active engagement - status, risk, dependencies, capacity, and go-live dates.

This is a deployment leadership role. You'll take customers from signed contract to live, adopted platform: configuration, integrations, data migration, training, go-live, and hand-over to Customer Success. You'll also lead and develop the Project Managers who run these deployments day to day, and personally manage our most strategic accounts.


Requirements

What you'll do:

Portfolio management

  • Maintain a single, reliable view of the entire deployment portfolio - status, milestones, dependencies, risks - for leadership reporting
  • Allocate Project Managers across engagements based on workload and complexity
  • Own scope, budget (ACV) and timeline discipline across the portfolio, managing change through the Statement of Work
  • Identify and escalate at-risk projects early, before they become critical

Team leadership

  • Coach and develop the Project Management team; set clear standards for discipline and consistency
  • Act as senior escalation point for at-risk projects, internally and with customers
  • Maintain and evolve the deployment playbook - kick-off, configuration, integrations, data, training, go-live, hand-over - including where AI tools can reduce administrative load

Direct delivery on strategic accounts

  • Personally manage our largest, most complex deployments - multi-brand, multi-country retail groups and OEM engagements
  • Run steering committees and executive-level customer communication
  • Coordinate technical workstreams with Solution Engineering, Product and Engineering
  • Ensure clean go-lives and smooth hand-over to Customer Success

Cross-functional alignment

  • Support pre-sales on large deals, validating that proposed scope and timelines are deliverable
  • Keep Product, Engineering, Sales and Customer Success aligned on portfolio priorities and constraints

What you bring:

  • 8+ years delivering complex SaaS or digital platform deployments to enterprise customers, end-to-end
  • Proven experience leading and developing a team of project managers - this role requires people management, not just project delivery
  • Strong portfolio management instincts: prioritisation, capacity planning, dependency and risk management across multiple concurrent projects
  • Working technical understanding of SaaS platforms, APIs, integrations and data migration
  • Track record of large, international, multi-stakeholder rollouts delivered on time, on scope, on budget
  • Automotive retail or mobility technology experience is a strong advantage
  • PMP, PRINCE2 or equivalent certification is a plus
  • Fluent professional English
  • Comfortable using AI tools to improve reporting and reduce administrative overhead

Benefits

What we offer:

  • Salary from €80,000/year with the final offer adjusted based on experience and skill set.
  • Meal vouchers
  • 26 days holiday plus national holidays
  • 30 days per year to work from anywhere
  • Genuine opportunities for national and international growth

If you're a project management leader who's comfortable owning a complex portfolio and developing a team while also getting hands-on with the deployments that matter most, we'd like to hear from you.
