About the Company:

With two decades of innovation under our belt, we are the powerhouse behind the digital systems that run the world’s leading cinema chains. We specialize in building the software, from seamless ticketing to mobile food and beverage ordering, that defines the modern movie-going experience. 

About the Role: 

As our Project Manager, you are the strategic anchor for high-stakes digital transformations in the global cinema industry. This is a high-visibility, client-facing role where you will own the delivery of sophisticated ticketing and guest-experience software for world-class entertainment brands. You aren’t just checking boxes; you are navigating a fast-moving landscape with elite clients who will challenge you to be your best. We are looking for a disciplined, "high-agency" leader who can command a room, stand their ground diplomatically under pressure, and ensure that every complex rollout is executed with total precision. If you’re ready to bridge the gap between ambitious vision and flawless technical execution, this is your stage.

What You’ll be Responsible For:

• Serve as the primary point of contact for clients, managing all communication and expectations
• Gather, define, and document clear project requirements and scope
• Own and manage the project backlog, ensuring priorities are aligned with client goals
• Oversee end-to-end project execution, from kickoff to final delivery
• Ensure timely delivery of high-quality outcomes
• Proactively identify risks, blockers, and scope changes, and communicate accordingly
• Coordinate cross-functional teams to ensure smooth execution
• Maintain detailed documentation and reporting for all active projects
• Ensuring proper documentation, processes, and project management best practices are followed.

Required Qualifications & Skills:

• 4+ years of experience in Project Management or similar role
• Proven experience in client-facing project delivery environments
• Strong understanding of Agile and/or Scrum methodologies
• Excellent written and verbal English communication skills
• Experience working with demanding clients who may make frequent changes.
• Ability to take control of the situation and guide the client to the answer diplomatically and professionally, and be assertive and push back diplomatically when needed, rather than just saying "yes".

Preferred Certifications:

• PMP (Project Management Professional)
• Certified Scrum Master (CSM)
• Certified Product Owner (CSPO)
