Key Responsibilities

  • Lead, coach, and develop a team of Software Implementation Consultants by providing performance management, mentoring, hiring, onboarding, career development, and operational leadership to ensure successful delivery and high employee engagement.
  • Reinforce accountability through consistent 1:1s and team rhythms, and deliver continuous coaching feedback rather than relying solely on annual review cycles.
  • Own consulting delivery performance by overseeing customer engagements, ensuring quality execution throughout implementation lifecycles, managing delivery risks, and supporting customer escalations to achieve successful outcomes and high satisfaction.
  • Escalate delivery risks early with clear options and recommendations, not just problems, and quickly realign team priorities when customer needs shift.
  • Establish, monitor, and improve operational performance through KPIs, OKRs, utilization management, capacity planning, forecasting, and continuous assessment of team performance against strategic objectives.
  • Eliminate low-value work and empower Consultants to make delivery decisions closest to the customer without unnecessary escalation.
  • Drive process improvement, implementation methodology enhancements, governance, and best practices that improve efficiency, consistency, scalability, compliance, and customer experience.
  • Partner cross-functionally with Sales, Product Management, Customer Success, Technical Services, Project Management, and Solution Design to support product adoption, strategic initiatives, customer growth opportunities, and delivery excellence.
  • Identify and operationalize AI-enabled opportunities within the consulting team's workflows — building simple business cases, ensuring compliance with PCC's AI governance guardrails, and driving team adoption of AI tools to reduce cycle time and manual effort.
