Quick Summary
kick-off, scope, planning, configuration, testing and go-live. Manage several customers in parallel at different stages, and keep every one of them on date. Work with customers on their processes,
Our agentic platform helps finance and operations teams worldwide remove manual work from their core business processes, so work runs end-to-end with greater control and significant productivity gains.
Today, over 550 enterprise customers use BLP across 1,300+ deployed projects. In the processes we automate, customers achieve productivity improvements of 5 to 10 times.
To date, BLP remains majority employee-owned, with Goldman Sachs holding a minority stake as a growth investor. Our success is driven by deep expertise in technology and business processes, a superior product with strong product-market fit, reflected in an expanding customer base that includes Fortune 500 companies.
BLP is one of Switzerland's fastest-growing SaaS scale-ups; we are now entering our next phase of growth. From our headquarters on Zürich's Bahnhofstrasse, we're expanding globally, with a growing presence across Europe and North America.
Join us and help make autonomous operations the new standard.
This is a full-time position based in Munich or Cologne. Following a comprehensive onboarding period at our HQ in central Zurich (minimum one month), you will work from your home location, with regular visits to customers across the DACH region.
Team collaboration matters a lot to us. You will regularly spend time with the team in person, in Zurich and at our hubs, for team days, all-hands and offsites. These visits are financially supported by blp.
You get customers live. Hands on, end to end, and fast.
This is the path most of our delivery leadership came through, and we hire at every step of it. We place you according to your experience and the size of the programs you have delivered, and we are explicit about what the next step requires.
Responsibilities
~1 min read- →
Run implementations end to end: kick-off, scope, planning, configuration, testing and go-live.
- →
Manage several customers in parallel at different stages, and keep every one of them on date.
- →
Work with customers on their processes, and flag early where a process assumption will not hold.
- →
Coordinate the specialists on your projects: Integrations Engineers, Technical Project Managers and AI Automation Specialists.
- →
Own scope actively. Recognize a change request for what it is and handle it deliberately.
- →
Keep the project inside its budget, and raise it early when the effort is drifting.
- →
Hand over cleanly at go-live to our Consultants and support organization.
Own the delivery outcome of global programs from kick-off to the last go-live: plan, scope, dependencies and date.
Drive the first go-live relentlessly, then run wave planning across ERPs, entities and countries.
Run the steering committee and own the decisions that come out of it.
Write and execute the recovery plan when a program is off track.
Lead the blp team on each engagement and coach the Project Managers working on your programs.
The following key attributes ensure success in this role:
Scope Discipline – You notice when a project is quietly growing, and you raise it rather than absorbing it.
Ownership & Autonomy – You take initiative, move things forward, and deliver end to end without being chased.
Escalation Judgment – You escalate early, to the right person, with a proposal rather than a problem.
Client Confidence – You are comfortable running a meeting with a customer's finance or IT lead in it.
Four-Language Fluency – Technology, process, data and people. You speak each well enough to spot where a roadblock really sits.
Structured Under Pressure – When a project goes sideways you get sharper and more organized, not louder.
5+ years of experience delivering complex projects: management consulting, enterprise software implementation, or large-scale transformation delivery.
Proven track record running multi-country or multi-entity programs with senior client stakeholders, and steering a committee that includes client executives.
Experience leading a delivery team rather than only a plan.
Strong analytical and communication skills. You can translate a business need into something a technical team can act on.
Fluent in German and English, spoken and written.
Bonus points for ERP implementation experience, finance or supply chain processes, or AI-driven SaaS.
