Discussion

Summary

Remote-first (Israel-based) Implementation Project Manager at a boutique Zoho/CRM delivery firm, owning multiple client implementation projects end to end — leading customer meetings, translating requirements into plans, coordinating developers, and managing budgets and delivery. Core stack: Zoho (CRM, Projects, Desk, Analytics, Flow, Creator) and similar platforms like Salesforce and HubSpot.

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.


This role combines:
  • project ownership

  • customer relationship ownership

  • implementation delivery

  • developer coordination

  • project budget management and commercial accountability

  • operational execution

It is suited for someone who enjoys working directly with customers, managing multiple implementation projects simultaneously, and driving projects from kickoff through successful delivery.


About the company

We are a boutique implementation and delivery company specializing in CRM and business systems, working primarily with Zoho-based solutions and similar platforms.

We operate as a remote-first team, managing multiple client projects in parallel across different industries.

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.


What You’ll Do

  • Own multiple customer implementation projects from project initiation through successful go-live.

  • Maintain complete visibility across project scope, timelines, priorities, risks, blockers, task ownership, documentation, and overall delivery status.
  • 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

The role is primarily remote, with occasional meetings at client offices as needed.

  • Strong conflict resolution and negotiation skills with the ability to balance customer needs and delivery constraints.
  • Experience leading customer meetings and managing customer expectations
  • Experience coordinating developers, consultants, or technical implementation teams
  • 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
  • Experience working for a Zoho Partner
  • Experience with Zoho One applications such as CRM, Projects, Desk, Analytics, Flow, or Creator

  • Ownership of customer implementation projects from day one
  • Direct impact on customer success and delivery quality
  • A collaborative team where your contribution is highly visible
  • Exposure to a wide variety of customers and industries
  • Opportunity to develop professionally within one of Israel's leading Zoho implementation partners
