About the Role As a Project Manager at Gradion, you'll lead international IT delivery projects across both our Dedicated Team engagements (long-term partnerships) and Fixed-Price projects (defined scope, defined outcome). You'll be the person clients rely on to keep things clear, honest, and moving, turning ambiguous requirements into a plan the team can execute, spotting risks before they become surprises, and helping clients make the calls that keep projects on track. This is a client-facing role. You'll be trusted to speak plainly, push back when it matters, and use modern tools, especially AI, to work smarter, not just harder. In This Role, You Will Lead IT delivery projects end-to-end: from planning through delivery, for both Dedicated Team and Fixed-Price engagements, adapting your approach to what each model needs. Turn client requirements into a clear, actionable plan with scope, assumptions, and success criteria the team can build against. Be the main point of contact between clients, engineering teams, and internal stakeholders. Spot risks early, raise them clearly, and drive them to a decision with options and a recommendation, not just a status update. Keep Fixed-Price projects within scope, budget, and margin by managing change requests and preventing scope creep. Keep Dedicated Team engagements on a healthy rhythm, capacity planning, priorities, and continuous alignment with the client. Use AI tools to speed up requirements review, risk analysis, reporting, and stakeholder communication while checking the output before it goes out. Spot opportunities to grow the account and contribute to business development. Travel to client sites when it helps the project or the relationship. What We're Looking For A university degree in IT, Computer Science, or a related field. 5+ years of Project Management experience in IT development, with hands-on experience running both Dedicated Team and Fixed-Price projects, you know the difference and how to manage each well. Excellent international English communication skills is a must. Experience working with cross-cultural, English-speaking teams. A track record of turning unclear client requirements into clear, deliverable scope. Confidence to raise risks and difficult topics early with clients and internally. Comfort using AI tools in your daily work, and the judgment to know when to trust the output and when to double-check it. A proactive, growth-oriented mindset and the ability to adapt quickly when priorities shift. Hands-on technical experience or a solid understanding of software development processes is a plus.
