What will you be doing?
Your role
As a PMO Manager, you are the backbone of our project organization. You ensure that strategic and operational projects don't get stuck in good intentions, but are effectively implemented in our restaurants, support office, and central kitchen.
You work closely with ExCo, Operations, People, Digital, Finance, and Excellence. You report directly to the CEO — further underlining the importance of this role.
Concretely
You oversee the end-to-end project portfolio: priorities, timelines, dependencies, and impact.
You establish a clear PMO structure: governance, templates, decision-making, and reporting.
You challenge project owners on scope, planning, resources, and feasibility.
You identify risks early and course-correct before they hit the P&L or operations.
You make projects measurable: milestones, KPIs, and impact on costs, quality, and efficiency.
You ensure clear communication toward stakeholders and ExCo.
You help teams work better by creating focus, not through micromanagement.
This is a hands-on role: you are in the projects, not above them.
What This Role Is Not
One of our values is "Be Real," so we won't sugarcoat it:
This is not a purely administrative PMO role.
This is not a role where you only create status updates.
This is not a role without decision-making power.
You are given freedom, but also responsibility. When projects go off track, we expect you to see it, call it out, and (help) resolve it.
What do we offer?
A key role in an organization that is rapidly professionalizing.
Direct impact on how Hawaiian works, grows, and performs.
Close collaboration with ExCo and senior stakeholders.
A culture of ownership, honesty, and continuous improvement.
Compensation, of course We offer a market-competitive compensation package, aligned with experience and impact:
Gross salary up to €6,250 (depending on experience)
Net expense allowance
Company car (Tesla Model Y or Mercedes)
Meal vouchers of €10/day
DKV hospitalization insurance
Trust and a great working atmosphere: you will be part of the Digital team and work within a flexible schedule where the focus is primarily on output. We don't micromanage (pinky promise).
Why this is the right moment
Hawaiian is at a stage where structure makes the difference between slowdown and acceleration. This role is crucial to connecting strategy, operations, and projects.
