This role
This is an Expression of Interest (EOI) to connect with talent ahead of our next phase of growth. We’re proactively building our pipeline so we can engage strong candidates as new positions open.
Our Implementations Teams are responsible for implementing the Employment Hero platform with our high-value customers, and our Project Managers are responsible for ensuring timely and successful implementations; including bespoke solutions based on the customers needs within the Employment Hero platform.
As a SaaS Implementations Project Manager, you will be the primary contact point for high value customers during implementations, which means you will be responsible for project time, cost, quality and customer satisfaction. You will work with Implementation Specialists from our HR and Payroll teams and with our off-shore Data Analysts to deliver great outcomes for our customers.
This role is exciting! Many of our customers are not experts in project management, technology or HR/Payroll, therefore you will have the ability to support our customers with change management processes. You will be tasked with managing many projects at any one time, and to be successful, you will need to communicate effectively, influence stakeholders, prioritise tasks, in order to drive positive outcomes.
Your key focus areas will be:
- Managing multiple software implementation projects for our high value customers (20-30 projects).
- Managing the customer’s journey from the completion of sale, to system go-live, and business as usual.
- Lead the customer project by working with other project team members (Payroll & HR Consultants and Data Analysts) to ensure that tasks are completed to our high quality levels and in a timely manner.
This will include the following:
- Managing customer communications.
- Ensuring that issues are swiftly resolved.
- Effective and efficient utilisation of resources.
- Executing project management fundamentals
- Ensuring the data in our business management systems (e.g. sales, support, project management, time tracking) is accurate and current.
- Constantly reviewing and improving our delivery processes.
Who you are
To thrive at Employment Hero, you’ll need to embody The EH Way - operating with focus, agility, and an obsession with impact.
For this role, you’ll also bring:
- 3+ years project managing the delivery of SaaS implementations to small and medium sized business customers.
- 3+ years managing a portfolio of projects (up to 50 at any one time).
- Project Management qualification is highly desirable.
- Experience with HR and Payroll is highly desirable but not essential.
- Process innovation and improvement experience.
- High level of written and verbal communication including stakeholder engagement and stakeholder management.
- Effective and efficient utilisation of resources.
