Full Job Posting
What You Will Do
- Build the professional services team for systems implementation
- Define the operating model: service offerings, engagement structure, delivery methodology, governance, and handoffs between New & Expansion Growth, Product, and Customer Success.
- Set standards and templates for scoping, estimation, staffing, change control, and project close-out, and make sure they are used consistently.
- Establish clear role definitions, skill levels, and career paths for implementation consultants, project managers, and solution architects.
- Define the metrics that matter (utilization, margin, schedule and budget variance, scope-change capture, customer satisfaction) and run the business against them.
- Own scoping, SOWs, and commercial discipline
- Partner with New Logo, Expansion Growth, and Finance to structure implementation budgets and SOWs that reflect the true effort required, with realistic assumptions, defined deliverables, and clear exclusions.
- Establish a disciplined change-order and SOW-amendment process so that scope growth is identified, priced, and approved rather than absorbed.
- Review and approve scope and pricing for large or complex deals before commitment.
- Lead delivery on complex enterprise deployments
- Serve as director and escalation point for the largest, highest-risk implementations, including multi-module, multi-region, and multi-system programs.
- Guide solution design, integration approach (ERP, HRIS, IAM, data platforms, and other enterprise systems), data migration, and change management.
- Hold delivery teams accountable for schedule, budget, quality, and customer outcomes, and resolve issues early.
- Build and lead the team
- Hire and develop a small, high-caliber team, and scale it deliberately as demand grows.
- Coach delivery leads and consultants, and establish a culture of accountability, craft, and customer focus.
- Determine the right mix of internal staff and partner or subcontractor capacity, and manage those relationships.
- Be a senior voice to customers and the business
- Engage customer executives and sponsors as a credible system implementation leader, setting expectations and building confidence in our ability to deliver at scale.
- Provide input to Product and Leadership on what large customers need, and on lessons learned from delivery.
- Work with Growth leadership to position our implementation capability in strategic pursuits.
What You Bring
- Required
- 12+ years’ experience in consulting, systems implementation, or professional services
- 5+ years’ experience managing and leading the delivery of professional services in the EHS mgmt. systems and/or EHS digital platforms space.
- Direct experience building, scaling, or materially reshaping professional services or implementation practices (offerings, methodology, pricing, resourcing, and delivery governance).
- Strong commercial acumen: you have scoped, priced, and negotiated SOWs, managed change control, and been accountable for engagement margin and profitability.
- Executive presence, with the ability to earn trust with customer executives, internal leadership, and delivery teams.
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience.
- What Success Looks Like
- First 90 days
- Assess current implementation practices, active engagements, and staffing, and identify the highest-impact gaps and risks.
- Establish relationships with Strategic Subscriber Collaboration (SSC) team members, Growth, Finance, Product, and Customer Success.
- Propose the target SI operating model, initial role and skill-level framework, and scoping/SOW standards.
- First 6–12 months
- Measurable improvement in scope capture, delivery predictability, and margin on large deployments.
- Senior-level ownership of the portfolio of largest, most complex implementations.
- Operating model, scoping standards, and change-control process in place and consistently applied on new deals.
- Initial core team hired and onboarded.
- Why This Role
- A rare chance to build a services capability from the ground up with visible executive sponsorship.
- Real influence with how the company packages, prices, and delivers its work.
- Meaningful mission: helping organizations protect their people, communities, and the environment.
- Questions about the position? Please contact our HR Team, at [email protected].
