Overview

PowerPlan is looking for a Manager to lead, coach, and hold accountable a team of six to ten project managers delivering enterprise software implementation, upgrade, and optimization engagements. This is front-line leadership, not administration.

 

You'll establish evidence-based visibility into portfolio health, strengthen how your project managers apply the PMO operating model, and build PMs who can lead engagements independently. Success is measured by team capability and portfolio discipline, not by how many projects you personally have to rescue.

About PowerPlan

PowerPlan builds enterprise-grade tax, accounting, reporting, and workflow automation software for asset-intensive organizations in the energy industry, where financial accuracy, regulatory compliance, and operational reliability aren't optional — they're the product. As a Roper Technologies company, we combine the stability of a market-leading platform with the ambition of a team pushing PowerPlan NXT and AI-powered innovation forward.

 

Our Professional Services organization is the front line of that promise, delivering implementations, upgrades, SaaS migrations, and optimization engagements that turn PowerPlan's capabilities into measurable outcomes for the office of the CFO. As our portfolio grows, we're investing in the leadership, rigor, and operating discipline that make delivery predictable at scale — and this role sits at the center of that investment.

Responsibilities

Your Impact

  • Independently validate that every project's reported health, financials, staffing, and forecasts hold up against the evidence.
  • Coach project managers through real, current project situations, not hypotheticals, while holding each PM to a clear performance bar.
  • Drive consistent, proportionate use of the PMO operating model across the portfolio.
  • Strengthen financial and commercial discipline, keeping visibility into revenue, budget, margin, and change exposure.
  • Lead customer governance and escalations when complexity or risk exceeds a PM's current authority.
  • Resolve cross-functional dependencies with Product, Engineering, Support, Sales, and Finance.

What Success Looks Like

Within 90 days, you'll have delivered a formal portfolio-health baseline built on evidence, not confidence. Over the following months, you'll build PMs who lead with the operating model rather than just complete templates against it, and you'll be the person leadership trusts to catch a problem before it becomes a customer escalation.

Qualifications

What You'll Bring

  • Experience independently validating project health, financials, and forecasts against evidence rather than accepting status reports at face value.
  • A track record coaching project managers through real project situations, building judgment and decision quality.
  • Ability to apply governance and delivery standards proportionately, tailoring rigor to engagement size, complexity, and risk.
  • Working knowledge of project financials, margin, estimate to complete, backlog, and change management practices.
  • Experience leading customer escalations and governance conversations at the executive level.
  • Direct people-management experience holding delivery professionals accountable while supporting their growth.
  • Strong analytical and communication skills, with the judgment to distinguish symptoms from root causes.

Education & Experience

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience.
