The Mission
Publitas turns static, dead PDFs into interactive, shoppable digital content discovery experiences. For our global enterprise clients, transforming their traditional assets requires seamless technical alignment, strategic onboarding, and flawless execution.
Your mission as Senior Project Manager is to take end-to-end ownership of complex enterprise SaaS implementation projects, guiding major brands from initial onboarding to successful expansion. We work 80% asynchronously and judge success entirely by your ability to manage risks, align stakeholders, and deliver measurable customer value, not by the number of hours you sit on Zoom.
What Success Looks Like (Your First 90 Days)
We don't measure you by years of experience; we measure you by outcomes. Here is what you will achieve in your first 3 months:
Day 30: You have fully mastered the Publitas product suite, value proposition, and delivery methodologies. You have shadowed active implementation projects and assumed primary contact for your first set of enterprise accounts.
Day 60: You are independently leading scoping sessions, technical workshops, and timeline planning for new enterprise client onboardings. You have successfully mapped out client goals against our technical solutions and unblocked cross-functional delivery risks.
Day 90: You have successfully delivered your first major enterprise implementation project from kickoff to launch. You have established high-trust relationships with key client stakeholders and begun mentoring junior project managers to mature our delivery practices.
The DNA of a Project Manager at Publitas (Culture & Ownership)
High Ownership Delivery: You don't just pass messages between clients and developers; you own the project lifecycle end-to-end. You treat each implementation like your own business, proactively identifying delivery risks, balancing technical trade-offs, and driving projects to completion without needing layers of process or hand-holding.
Collaborative Bridge-Builder: You thrive at the intersection of client management and technical execution. You can confidently lead a workshop with enterprise C-level executives in German, then switch contexts to scope out API integrations, custom development workflows, or analytics setups with our engineering teams.
High Autonomy, Zero Ego: In a remote-first, asynchronous environment, there is nowhere to hide behind "busywork." You are highly organized, comfortable navigating change, and motivated entirely by results. You don't wait for permission; you take the initiative to solve problems and optimize delivery practices.
What We Offer You to Win
Competitive Compensation: A competitive salary geo-bracketed to your location.
True Remote Autonomy: No clock-watching or useless alignment meetings. You manage your projects and schedule independently.
Global Team Retreats: Working remotely shouldn't mean working isolated. We gather the entire company in inspiring cities across the globe once a year to connect, strategize, and celebrate in person.
Modern Stack & Gear: A top-tier MacBook, remote work accessories, and a co-working allowance if you prefer to work outside your home.
Personal Growth Budget: A monthly wellness allowance, an education/course budget to sharpen your skills, and free access to Kindle and Audible books.
Time Off & Perks: 25 days of paid vacation plus your local national holidays, along with free Publitas Swag.
The Non-Negotiables
Fluent German & English: You will navigate complex enterprise client conversations in German and collaborate with our global, distributed team in English.
5+ Years SaaS Implementation Experience: You have a proven track record of managing and delivering complex, technical enterprise SaaS project lifecycles from onboarding to expansion, ideally within retail, publishing, or marketing tech.
Technical & Commercial Acumen: You are deeply familiar with project management tools (Agile, Asana, Jira) and possess a solid understanding of HTML, design tools, analytics, APIs, and custom integrations to effectively scope technical client requirements.
AI-First Execution: We do not scale headcount to solve manual problems. You must have a proven track record of working in an AI-first way, leveraging generative AI tools to hyper-personalize communications, automate project documentation, summarize meeting data, and accelerate your delivery velocity.
At Publitas, we see AI as a core lever for performance, efficiency, and innovation. We expect all team members to actively use AI in their daily work to improve quality, speed, and output.
Depending on the role, this ranges from effectively using AI tools in day-to-day workflows to designing and scaling AI-driven systems. We are not looking for candidates who are “AI-curious”; we look for people who already use AI to do better work and can demonstrate tangible impact.
