About us

Appnovation is a global, full-service digital partner that combines Strategy, Experience & Design, Engineering and Managed Services. We build digital solutions that deliver real impact today and serve as foundations for future growth.  Bold ambition. Practical action. Endless possibilities.

About the Role

We are seeking a strategic and technically fluent Project Manager to lead complex Web and CMS digital transformation initiatives. In this role, you will oversee the full project lifecycle — from discovery and solution design to development, launch, and post-launch optimization.

You will manage cross-functional teams including strategists, UX designers, architects, developers, and QA specialists while serving as the primary point of contact for enterprise clients.

This is an exciting opportunity for a delivery leader who thrives in fast-paced digital environments, understands modern web architecture and CMS ecosystems, and can balance technical complexity with commercial accountability. You will report to the Delivery Director and play a key role in driving successful, scalable digital platform implementations.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead end-to-end delivery of enterprise-scale Web and CMS projects (replatforming, multi-site, headless implementations)
  • Manage project scope, budgets, schedules, and profitability
  • Facilitate discovery workshops and translate business requirements into actionable delivery plans
  • Develop detailed project plans, timelines, RAID logs, and status reporting
  • Oversee resource planning, forecasting, and estimate-to-completion tracking
  • Identify and mitigate risks related to integrations, content migration, and technical architecture
  • Participate in pre-sales activities including RFP responses, scoping, and SOW development
  • Build strong client relationships and identify opportunities for growth and expansion
  • Drive continuous improvement of project governance and delivery processes
What we are looking for

Must-Have:

  • 8+ years of Project Management experience in a digital agency or consulting environment
  • Proven experience delivering enterprise Web and CMS implementations (e.g., Drupal, AEM, Sitecore, headless CMS)
  • Strong understanding of modern web architecture and multi-platform integrations
  • Experience managing large client-facing teams and complex project logistics
  • Demonstrated financial management experience including revenue forecasting and margin tracking
  • Expertise in Agile and hybrid Agile/Waterfall delivery models
  • Excellent stakeholder written and verbal communication skills across business and technical audiences

Nice-to-Have:

  • Business analysis or requirements management experience
  • PMP, PMI-ACP, or Scrum Master certification
  • Experience working with global distributed teams
  • Familiarity with marketing technology ecosystems and digital governance
Who you are
  • You are commercially minded and understand the financial drivers of digital delivery
  • You are technically credible and comfortable engaging with architects and developers
  • You bring structure and clarity to complex, multi-workstream programs
  • You are proactive in identifying risks and solving problems before they escalate
  • You build trusted, long-term client relationships
  • You continuously seek opportunities to improve processes and delivery excellence
