Job Description:
Managing complex custom projects with a focus on excellent customer relationships are essential to you? Inspiring and entrepreneurship are your DNA? Cegeka continues to grow! Within our Applications software division we develop applications for clients in sectors within the private market. We are looking for an experienced Program Manager who can contribute to our pre-sales activities during the bid-lifecycle and who is also capable of ensuring a smooth and constructive execution of projects.
You work in our Digital Business division where we develop custom software projects, integration projects and innovative cloud-native solutions for customers in different sectors (EMU, Aviation, Automotive, Banking, Insurance, Transport…) and this in a very thorough Agile way.
You are responsible for further expanding one of our programs and you will be responsible for several existing projects. A program ideally consists of 40 to 50 colleagues. You are responsible for an optimal client relationship. You partner with our client and think along strategically to deliver a concrete and workable IT solution.
Stakeholder & risk management in combination with managing customer expectations are essential in your role as program manager. You see to it that budget, timing, quality and customer satisfaction are optimal and get ‘in the mud’ yourself to achieve this. Your experience in the pre-sales process enables you to correctly support the bid-lifecycle.
Working together with your team is key; you inspire and coach the project teams to achieve the program objectives. You organize your program in function of both financial and qualitative objectives. You have P&L responsibility for your program. Digital Business works with both local, hybrid and nearshore teams. Even when your project teams operate (partly) from abroad, you maintain the necessary connection with the teams.
Requirements:
You are an entrepreneur at heart who enjoys managing complex programs across multiple functional and technical domains, with an eye for new business opportunities. You have a helicopter view and keep balance between our client and Cegeka. You have at least 5 years of experience in a similar role managing teams that produce custom software. Experience in the business domains in which our division is active is a plus.
You have knowledge of technology stacks, frameworks, architecture concepts in the bespoke software development world. You are an inspiring leader who can motivate and inspire a team, servant leadership is your strength. “Out-of-the-box” thinking, entrepreneurship and open communication are indispensable skills for you. You see feedback as a key part of the process. Other essential qualities that describe you are: assertive, proactive, communicative and stress resistant.
You will work from one of our Cegeka offices in Hasselt or Ghent, combined with working from home and visiting clients.
Our Offer:
We ask a lot of you and your talents! Fortunately, you also get a lot in return! Competencies and character are essential to us, alongside experience and ambitions. Cegeka continuously invests in talent management so that every employee can realise his potential. You will join a Top Employer! A competitive salary completed with fringe benefits. An electrical company car with charging card or mobility budget, lunch vouchers, eco vouchers, interesting group and hospitalisation insurance, a mobile phone subscription, flat-rate expense allowances, a powerful laptop and the opportunity to give your salary package a personal touch thanks to our Flex Reward Plan.
Flexible working hours and a nice work/life balance. A top team: in which new fresh ideas and initiatives are always welcome! Team events, monthly happy hours and an always legendary company party are also part of this. Tailormade guidance: throughout your career, you will be guided by our people managers. So you have a point of contact, a personal coach and a sparring partner.
Continuous learning: through innovation centres, reading groups, knowledge sharing meetings, hackathons, participation in conferences and external training courses, we focus on knowledge sharing and learning. Opportunity to grow: depending on your own interests and initiatives, Cegeka offers various horizontal and vertical career paths. Hybrid working: you work from a Cegeka office in your area (Hasselt, Leuven, Antwerp, Ghent), but also from the agencies of the Flemish Government (Ghent or Brussels within walking distance of the station), combined with working from home.
We value sustainability by pursuing carbon neutrality with the electrification of our vehicle fleet and an eco-friendly data center. We develop innovative solutions with a positive impact on the environment, people and society, and strive for an inclusive and diverse work environment where everyone is valued and heard.
