Why this job is exciting
  • People management. Provide day-to-day frontline management, coaching, and development for the IM team, fostering a high-accountability, customer-obsessed delivery culture.
  • Capacity management. Maintain real-time visibility into team capacity and utilization, and balance load across IMs as the portfolio grows.
  • Assignment logic. Own the logic and process for matching IMs to projects based on scope, complexity, account profile, and capacity — informed by Solutions Engineering scoping at handoff.
  • Project-plan rigor. Ensure consistent, high-quality project plans, milestone tracking, and status reporting across every engagement, with clear internal and customer alignment.
  • Delivery quality. Define and uphold standards for implementation execution, escalation handling, and on-time, on-scope delivery.

  • Internal stakeholders. Drive alignment across Sales, Customer Success, Product, and the broader Solutions Engineering org so that delivery commitments are realistic and well-supported.
  • Design partners and strategic accounts. Partner closely on Syndio’s most strategic engagements, ensuring white-glove delivery where it matters most.

  • Proven ability to run a frontline delivery team with rigor — capacity planning, resourcing/assignment, project governance, and delivery-quality standards.
  • Comfort operating in ambiguity as a builder; you are equally happy managing the team today and designing the function for tomorrow.
