This is a remote position.

Full-Time | Remote-first within Israel | Applicants must be based in Israel​

We are looking for a hands-on Implementation Project Manager to take ownership of multiple client implementation projects in a fast-moving, customer-focused delivery environment.

The environment is highly client-facing, execution-oriented, and fast-paced, requiring strong ownership, communication, prioritization, and the ability to keep multiple projects moving successfully simultaneously.

  • Proactively identify delivery risks, manage scope, effort, timelines, budgets, and customer expectations while maintaining accurate project information and contributing to continuous improvement of delivery processes.
  • Monitor project budgets, effort utilization, and delivery profitability, ensuring projects remain within agreed commercial boundaries.


The Role

70–80% hands-on project management and customer delivery

20–30% of project planning, coordination, documentation, and operational execution

  • Hands-on implementation experience with the ability to understand business requirements, discuss implementation approaches with customers, and work effectively with consultants and developers throughout the implementation lifecycle.
  • Strong technical orientation with the ability to understand CRM/business application concepts, workflows, integrations, and implementation processes (software development experience is not required).
  • Excellent interpersonal skills and emotional intelligence, with the ability to build trust and long-term relationships with customers and internal teams.
  • Ability to translate business requirements into structured execution plans
  • Strong planning, organization, and prioritization skills
  • Ability to manage scope, timelines, risks, and delivery accountability
  • Business and commercial awareness, with the ability to balance customer satisfaction, project scope, timelines, budgets, and delivery quality.
  • Excellent follow-up and execution discipline
  • Comfortable working in fast-moving, dynamic environments
  • High ownership mentality and strong attention to detail
  • Strong decision-making skills with the ability to prioritize, resolve issues, and make sound decisions in dynamic customer environments.
  • Fluent Hebrew (spoken and written) – mandatory
  • Strong written and verbal English communication skills.
  • Experience working with CRM or business application platforms such as Zoho, Salesforce, HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics, Monday.com, or similar implementation environments
  • Naturally, takes ownership, follows through relentlessly, and proactively closes open items without requiring constant management follow-up.
  • Comfortable asking questions, validating assumptions, and challenging unclear information before making commitments.
  • Strong follow-up discipline with the ability to ensure commitments are completed rather than simply assigned.
  • Excellent stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence, align expectations, and build strong collaborative relationships across customers and internal teams.
  • Strong documentation discipline and attention to maintaining accurate project records and customer communications

Strong Advantage

  • Hands-on experience managing Zoho implementation projects
