Associate Implementation Manager
About the role
This is an entry-level role built for someone ready to take things on and grow fast. You'll be embedded in a fast-moving implementation org, supporting clients and internal teams through onboarding, approval, and early adoption. You'll work cross-functionally to ensure a seamless experience from pre-sale through ongoing support, and you'll do it with an AI-first mindset, leaning on modern tools to work smarter, not harder. This opportunity is located in New York, NY, and requires this hire to work from our office four days a week.
What You'll Do
- Drive Efficiency with AI - Approach every task with an AI-first mindset. Look for opportunities to leverage AI & Automation Tools to automate data collection, streamline workflows, and reduce manual lift.
- Project Execution Partnership - Partner on projects to plan, schedule, and manage project timelines from kickoff through portfolio go-live. Facilitate recurring project management meetings, build bespoke implementation plans tailored to client goals, and ensure each project lands on time, within scope, and against the right outcomes.
- Handle Varied Scope - Move between data onboarding, client-specific implementation plans, and internal projects without losing momentum. You'll juggle multiple priorities and know when to ask for help versus push through.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration - Work closely with Sales, Solutions, Customer Success, and Support to ensure a consistent client experience from pre-sale through ongoing support.
- Develop Toward Client Mastery - Actively participate in internal team strategy and project management meetings to hone "VTS Best Practices" toward managing client expectations and milestones, with a clear path to owning your own accounts.
What makes you a great fit?
- AI Forward - You've used LLM & or automation tools like n8n, Cursor, or to automate or accelerate your own work, even on personal projects.
- Structured Thinker - You turn ambiguous problems into organized plans. You're comfortable with spreadsheets, models, and data, and you ask the right questions before jumping into execution.
- Strong Communicator - You can write a clear status update, run a 30-minute client call with minimal guidance from a senior IM in the room, and know when to escalate.
- Multitasker - You thrive in fast-paced environments and can juggle multiple internal priorities without dropping the ball.
- Growth-Oriented - You're looking for a foot-in-the-door role where you can master the product internally before eventually leading your own client accounts.
What Success Looks Like
- First 6 months: You've shadowed senior IMs across the full implementation lifecycle, taken ownership of data onboarding for at least one client, and built or contributed to at least one AI-driven workflow that saves the team measurable time.
- First 12 months: You're running smaller client implementations independently, facilitating client meetings without a senior IM, and recognized cross-functionally as the go-to for at least one part of the implementation process.
