Project Manager - Enterprise SaaS

At Poka, we’re transforming how frontline teams operate, learn, and solve problems. Our connected worker platform is purpose-built for manufacturing, empowering frontline workers to share knowledge, collaborate in real-time, and drive continuous improvement. Think of it as the missing digital link, bringing the human interface into the stack of the Smart Factory, generating the right data and insights that drive entirely new scales of process improvements. We’re proud to support global leaders like Nestlé, Bosch, Mars, and Danone in their digital transformation journeys and as part of the IFS family, our reach and impact continue to grow globally. Own and deliver a flagship transformation in Oil & Gas This isn’t a typical project management role. You’ll take ownership of a strategic “lighthouse” engagement with a global player in the Oil & Gas sector, one of the most important deployments in our portfolio, and a key stepping stone for expansion across the energy industry. You’ll operate at the center of a sophisticated delivery ecosystem, working alongside a Big 4 systems integrator and our parent company, IFS. Success here doesn’t just mean delivering a project - it means setting the standard for how Poka scales in complex, high-stakes industrial environments. About the role As Project Manager, you’ll lead the end-to-end delivery of Poka’s deployment within a single, highly strategic enterprise engagement. This program includes multiple workstreams, stakeholders, and dependencies, requiring strong coordination, structure, and leadership. You’ll orchestrate delivery across a complex partner ecosystem, including the client’s internal teams, Poka, IFS, and a global systems integrator - ensuring alignment from site-level operations to executive governance. The flagship deployment focuses on four high-impact production use cases: Operator rounds : digitizing daily field inspections and readings Digital work procedures : enabling structured, guided execution of operational tasks Work order requests : frontline-initiated maintenance flows integrated with IFS Cloud Electronic work permits : integrations with permit-to-work systems supporting safe execution of high-risk activities What you’ll be doing Lead the end-to-end delivery of this strategic enterprise engagement, ensuring successful implementation and long-term value realization Serve as the single point of accountability across Poka, IFS, the client, and their implementation partner Orchestrate delivery across a complex partner ecosystem, aligning multiple stakeholders with different priorities and ways of working Translate between operational realities at refinery/site level and executive-level program governance Act as the primary point of contact for senior client stakeholders, building trust and driving alignment Coordinate cross-functional teams (Professional Services, Content, Analytics, Integrations) to deliver against scope, timelines, and quality expectations Proactively identify risks, dependencies, and bottlenecks, and drive resolution across organizations Ensure clear communication, reporting, and governance structures are in place across all parties Travel to Paris, typically once per month, for on-site collaboration What you bring Proven experience managing complex, enterprise-level SaaS or software implementation programs Experience working with ERP, EAM/CMMS, or similarly integrated enterprise systems Strong track record of delivering in multi-party environments (client, partners, SIs, internal teams) Executive presence and confidence engaging with senior stakeholders, including client VPs and consulting partners Ability to operate across both strategic and operational levels - comfortable in the field and in the boardroom Excellent coordination and leadership skills, with a knack for bringing clarity to complex environments Experience in Oil & Gas or heavy industry is a strong advantage Fluency in French is a significant plus Willingness to travel regularly to Paris Why Poka Work on a strategic, high-impact global account with real visibility, defining how Poka delivers in the energy sector Be part of a fast-growing, innovation-driven company within the IFS ecosystem Collaborate with international teams across North America and Europe Help shape how some of the world’s largest industrial organizations operate and improve What we offer: Dynamic and collaborative work environment.
