Where You'll Work

This is a hybrid role based in Holmdel NJ, Chicago IL, Raleigh NC, London with the expectations to be in office at least 3 days a week for collaboration and connection.

Why This Role Matters

Every product Litera ships only creates value when it is successfully adopted by the client—and that is exactly where this role sits. As Project Manager in Professional Services, you are the single point of accountability that turns a signed deal into a live, high-performing implementation. You protect revenue and margin by keeping projects on scope, on budget, and on schedule across a portfolio of concurrent engagements. Most importantly, you ensure every client's first experience of Litera sets the standard for a long-term partnership, directly fueling retention, expansion, and our reputation in the market.

What You'll Deliver

• Successful End-to-End Implementations — Own every phase from kick-off through go-live and support handover, ensuring each engagement lands on time with full client sign-off and adoption readiness.
• On-Target Portfolio Performance — Run multiple concurrent projects across the Litera product suite, balancing competing priorities and shared resources so no engagement loses momentum or quality.
• Scope, Budget & Timeline Integrity — Maintain rigorous control of project plans, forecasts, and financials—tracking effort, burn, and margin, managing change formally, and escalating trade-offs early with clear options.
• Early Risk Resolution — Anticipate issues before they reach the client by maintaining live RAID logs, surfacing concerns with recommended actions, and driving them to closure proactively.
• Aligned Stakeholder Ecosystem — Coordinate across Professional Services, Product, Engineering, Support, Customer Success, Sales, and client teams to provide every stakeholder a single, accurate view of progress.
• Client-Ready Quality — Ensure all deliverables meet Litera's standards and documented client requirements, coordinating testing, training, and acceptance so the client is genuinely ready to adopt at go-live.
• Commercial Awareness — Support statements of work, resource plans, and partner coordination; identify scope creep and additional service opportunities and work with the commercial team to convert them.
• Continuous Improvement — Capture lessons learned and client feedback, feeding practical improvements into delivery methodology, estimation models, and tooling—and mentor fellow project managers through example.
