Competencies

You're part consultant, part project manager, part coach and 100% customer-obsessed. You've led complex software implementations, ideally in SaaS, CS, CRM, or RevOps ecosystems. You have the technical savviness to understand system architecture, integrations, and data flows and the tenacity to figure things out. You're an exceptional communicator, both verbally and in writing, able to simplify the complex and lead with confidence. You're organized, structured, meticulous with details, and never satisfied with good enough.

That shows up in how you work:

• You build relationships easily across org charts, from C-suite to system admins


• You're comfortable facilitating workshops and executive sessions, both virtual and in-person


• You bring strong project management skills and can juggle multiple customers, priorities, and timelines without missing a beat


• You have the business acumen to understand revenue, retention, and customer value, and you know how to move the needle

Bonus points if you have experience with SaaS platforms such as CRM or CSP systems, data integration and mapping, change management frameworks such as Prosci or Six Sigma, or a background in consulting, Customer Success, or RevOps transformation.

In this role you will:

• Lead enterprise implementations from kickoff to go-live, ensuring timelines, deliverables, and outcomes are achieved


• Be a product expert and confidently advise customers on how to best leverage Planhat to meet their business goals


• Consult strategically with customer executives, functional leaders, and technical teams to align platform configuration with business outcomes


• Facilitate enablement sessions, both virtual and in-person, to empower leaders, admins, and end users


• Champion change management by guiding organizations through the process, communication, and behavioral shifts required to make Planhat adoption stick


• Collaborate cross-functionally with Sales, CS, Product, Support, and Enablement to ensure a seamless customer experience from presale to post-go-live
