Seeking Technical Project Managers at the top of their game!
About the Company
Our client is a fast-growing, employee-owned SaaS business. Self-funded and profitable, they have built a dominant position in their core markets and are now scaling aggressively into enterprise accounts across New Zealand and international markets.
The Role:
This is a newly created senior position within a lean, high-performing delivery function. As the only Project Manager based in Auckland, you will own a portfolio of 3-4 concurrent projects at any one time.
You will be working on a live, customer-led platform where features are built in parallel with deployment. This is not a greenfield build or a textbook implementation. Your ability to manage evolving scope, shifting priorities and stakeholder expectations around work-in-progress is critical to success.
You will also play a key role in lifting delivery capability across the business, mentoring junior staff and embedding best practice where many projects are run by non-PMs.
Key Responsibilities:
The Auckland headquarters has a culture that is fast-paced, performance-oriented and genuinely high-trust. Promotions happen quickly, attrition is extremely low, and the business rewards people who deliver.
Apply now to be considered. Please note we can only consider Auckland-based applicants with valid working rights.
