• Ensure radical transparency on progress, risks, priorities, and delivery health — no surprises, no comfortable silences – alignment on progress, not on explanations

People Development & Coaching

• Lead, mentor, and grow a team of Project Leaders and Scrum Masters — building capability, confidence, and career paths

• Define what great project management looks like at Metrologic, across both agile and hybrid delivery models — and make that standard visible and achievable

• Be the kind of leader people grow under: direct feedback, genuine investment, and the clarity to help people see what they're capable of

• Support the organization's shift toward greater agility — not as a methodology exercise, but as a genuine cultural transformation

The Environment You Will Step Into

This is a multinational, multi-site organization with engineering teams across Europe, USA, and India, collaborating daily across time zones, disciplines, and product lines. The complexity is real — and so is the opportunity. You will be operating at a moment of intentional growth: new team members joining, new practices being established, and a genuine organizational appetite for transformation.

What We're Looking For

• 8+ years in technical project management, with at least 3 years in an agile or scaled agile environment

• Demonstrated experience leading delivery transformation or change management in a software organization

• Proven track record managing and coaching project managers or Scrum Masters

• Experience working in or across international, multi-site engineering teams is strongly valued

• Senior-level command of project and program management frameworks — PMI, PRINCE2, SAFe, Scrum, or equivalent

• Strong understanding of agile and hybrid delivery models, and the judgment to know when to apply which

• Hands-on proficiency with delivery and collaboration tooling: Jira, Confluence, and equivalent platforms

• A change agent — you see organizational friction as a problem to solve, not a condition to accept

• Strong influencing skills in a matrix environment — you lead through credibility, clarity, and relationship, not hierarchy

• Exceptional communicator at every level — from engineering teams to executive stakeholders

• Analytically grounded and data-literate — you make decisions with evidence and explain them with clarity

• Deeply committed to people development — you measure your success partly by how much the people around you have grown

Key Performance Indicators

• Delivery plan quality — clear, synchronized scheduling between Product Management and R&D, with committed milestones

• On-time, on-budget delivery rate — across all active strategic projects

• Stakeholder satisfaction — measured across internal and external stakeholders at key delivery milestones

• Agile maturity progression — measurable improvement in team practices, retrospective outcomes, and delivery predictability over time

Why This Role

• Real transformation mandate — you have explicit organizational support to change how we work, not just manage how we currently do

• International scope — you'll lead across geographies, cultures, and time zones, with all the complexity and richness that brings

• Strategic visibility — direct access to executive leadership and product strategy, with your fingerprints on what gets built and when

• A team worth leading — talented, motivated people who want to grow and are ready for someone to help them do it
