  • Conduct stakeholder mapping and maintain clear, transparent communication throughout project lifecycles.
  • Facilitate steering committee meetings and present progress updates to executive leadership.
  • Manage client relationships, ensuring satisfaction and long-term engagement.

Risk & Compliance Management

  • Identify, assess, and mitigate project risks and dependencies to ensure delivery success.
  • Ensure compliance with corporate governance, data protection (e.g., GDPR), and industry-specific standards.
  • Establish contingency plans and manage issue escalation promptly and effectively.

Team Leadership & Mentoring

  • Supervise, guide, and mentor project coordinators, analysts, and junior project managers.
  • Foster a culture of collaboration, accountability, and innovation across geographically dispersed teams.
  • Build capability within the regional project management office (PMO) by sharing knowledge, tools, and methodologies.

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Project Management, Business Administration, Information Technology, or a related discipline.
  • PMP, PRINCE2, or Agile/Scrum Master certification is mandatory.
  • Minimum 8+ years of experience in project management, with at least 4 years managing complex, multi-country projects in EMEA.
  • Demonstrated expertise in delivering enterprise-level projects with budgets exceeding USD $1M.
  • Strong understanding of project governance frameworks, risk management, and compliance in international markets.
  • Proven ability to lead remote, cross-functional, and cross-cultural teams effectively.
  • Exceptional communication and presentation skills, with fluency in English (additional European or Middle Eastern languages an advantage).

Preferred Skills & Competencies

  • Advanced proficiency in project management tools.
  • Strong analytical and financial management skills with experience in forecasting and cost optimization.
  • Ability to manage competing priorities and adapt quickly in fast-paced environments.
  • High emotional intelligence, cultural awareness, and diplomacy in managing stakeholders.
