ABOUT THE ROLE
Are you an experienced project manager who thrives under pressure, commands complex and often fixed-priced deliveries, and
maneuvers seamlessly with multiple different stakeholders?
We are looking for a Senior Project Manager to join our Delivery Excellence team to steer client deliveries across diverse
industries. At Futurice, you won’t be buried under heavy, bureaucratic project administration. Instead, you'll bring what truly
makes an exceptional consultant: commercial sharpness, deep empathy for both clients and delivery teams, and the confidence to
guide tough conversations toward pragmatic solutions. You know contract governance inside out, manage budgets and margins with
rigor, and turn shifting scopes into clear, shared agreements.
We actively integrate practical AI, modern data engineering, and generative tooling into daily project workflows and client
transformations. So you will get hands-on experience leading cutting-edge AI-augmented development initiatives.
This is a full-time, permanent position based out of our Helsinki or Tampere offices, with flexible hybrid work practices.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
In this role, you will typically manage 1–2 concurrent projects. With high autonomy comes end-to-end accountability: the contract
is your framework, and project health—both human and financial—is in your hands. You’ll act as the trusted bridge between our
multidisciplinary craftspeople and client decision-makers.
Key responsibilities include
- Leading custom digital projects from initial discovery to handover, keeping scope, timelines, forecasts, and profitability
firmly on track.
- Owning project financials and contractual baselines end-to-end. Maintain credible forecasts (EAC, staffing mix, utilization) to
safeguard project margins and eliminate unbilled surprises.
- Stepping in if needed-you reconstruct the facts, align on a credible path forward, and steer execution until control and client
trust are restored.
- Facilitating steering groups, spot scope creep early, negotiate change requests constructively, and ensure both value and
contract realities stay balanced.
- Partnering across all levels of the client organization—from hands-on development leads to director and C-level
decision-makers, especially in complex setups with conflicting priorities.
- Creating psychological safety and clarity for your cross-functional team, and shielding them from external friction so they can
focus on what they do best.
- Contributing to our Delivery Excellence practice by spotting systemic delivery risks, challenging overly optimistic
assumptions, and mentoring peers in governance and forecasting.
WHAT WE HOPE YOU BRING
We are looking for a project manager who is comfortable operating in dynamic consulting environments and ready to hit the ground
running:
- 5–10 years of IT consulting PM experience with proven end-to-end delivery. Given our fast-paced, multi-client environment,
hands-on experience driving multiple shorter-cycle projects to successful completion is essential; a background solely focused
on a single long-term program won't be the right match for this role.
- Proven track record owning project P&L, milestones, delivery costs, billable rates, and Estimate at Completion (EAC) across
various pricing models.
- Experience stepping into high-friction or struggling deliveries, re-establishing clear governance, and turning around
commercial or delivery drift.
- The courage and diplomacy to hold your ground, clarify decision authority, and formalize contract amendments without harming
customer partnerships.
- Solid understanding of modern custom software delivery, cloud setups, integrations, and how agile multidisciplinary teams build
great digital products.
- Comfort navigating different client cultures and industries, staying calm and focused when timelines get tight, and adapting
swiftly to various tooling stacks.
NICE TO HAVE (BONUS POINTS)
- Recognized project management certifications (such as IPMA, PRINCE2, PMP, or equivalent)—we see these as a great plus, though
your practical delivery track record always speaks loudest.
Don’t check every single box? Please apply anyway! We hire people, not static requirement checklists, and we value curious minds,
unique backgrounds, and complementary strengths.
