What you’ll work on:

• Leading Clio Operate implementations for mid-sized and large law firms, from kickoff through hand-off to support
• Guiding projects through each stage of the implementation lifecycle, including requirements workshops, playbacks, sprints, user acceptance testing, and business change
• Owning the commercial success of your projects, including budgets, financial reporting, and profitability
• Managing project plans and timelines, identifying risks early, and solving complex problems as they come up
• Managing resources across a portfolio of projects, from small part-time teams to project teams of 10 or more
• Building strong relationships with client stakeholders and communicating proactively to keep projects on track and clients happy
• Supporting clients through business change so users adopt the platform and see value quickly
• Partnering with internal teams to stay current on product features and turn them into best practices for clients
• Driving continuous improvement in how we deliver, working within the Service Delivery engagement process

What you may have:

• Proven experience as a Project or Program Manager, delivering projects on time, on budget, and above client expectations, including project financial reporting
• Experience managing projects with Agile methodologies and driving iterative delivery in a fast-moving environment
• Strong change management skills and a passion for helping businesses change through technology
• An understanding of SaaS architecture and modern software methodologies, and the ability to work closely with technical teams
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to bring together clients, stakeholders, and cross-functional teams and explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences
• A keen interest in improving your craft by using AI
