Job description
The Implementation Manager is responsible for managing end-to-end client implementations, ensuring successful onboarding and product adoption. This role combines technical configuration expertise with strong client relationship management to deliver high-quality solutions that meet client needs while maintaining scalability and consistency. The Implementation Manager works cross-functionally to coordinate delivery efforts, resolve issues, and uphold documentation and quality standards throughout the implementation lifecycle., What you'll do You will be accountable for the full implementation lifecycle: onboarding planning, configuration, testing, troubleshooting, go-live, and post-launch quality checks-while maintaining scalability, consistency, and documentation quality across implementations. Implementation delivery
- Lead client implementations end-to-end: kickoff, onboarding plan, configuration, testing, go-live and launch follow-up.
- Organise and run client working sessions (solution walkthroughs, testing sessions, progress updates) and keep stakeholders aligned on actions, timelines and dependencies.
- Track requests, risks and issues, and ensure follow-up with the right internal teams to keep delivery moving.
- Maintain clear project documentation (timelines, actions, outcomes) and ensure information is accurate, accessible, and aligned to documentation standards (clarity and traceability).
- Handle clients change requests by scoping impact, assessing feasibility with internal teams, and managing delivery via agreed change control and timelines.
Solution configuration & quality assurance
- Coordinate integration requirements and validation with client IT and internal technical colleagues (APIs, data feeds, webhooks / data mapping) - no coding required.
- Support testing/UAT by setting up test steps, coordinating execution, documenting outcomes, and ensuring issues are logged and resolved before launch.
- Troubleshoot implementation challenges across configuration, data and operational flows, escalating internally when needed.
- Conduct final readiness checks and coordinate with relevant teams to confirm go-live readiness and minimise post-launch issues.
Cross team alignment
- Coordinate with Sales, Product, and Client Management to align implementation plans with internal timelines and product capabilities.
- Perform quality checks during and after launch, identify gaps, and drive improvements with relevant stakeholders.
Continuous improvement
- Capture lessons learned and suggest improvements to templates, documentation, and implementation steps to increase consistency and speed.
- Lead structured knowledge transfer by documenting key learnings and sharing implementation best practices within the team to support onboarding and continuous improvement.
- Share structured product/process feedback to support improvements in product quality and documentation.
What success looks like (first 6-12 months)
- Take ownership of a portfolio of international implementations and deliver stable go-lives.
- Improve consistency of delivery through strong documentation standards, disciplined testing, and clear stakeholder follow-up.
- Reduce recurring issues by identifying root causes and feeding improvements back into the team.
