Project manager in hotel systems

MEININGER Hotels. Where the comforts of a hotel meet the special facilities of a hostel. Our Change & Technology team looks after the systems behind every booking, check-in and invoice: PMS, payments, channel management, booking engine, CRM and guest apps. We’re a small PM team with short decision paths, and our projects go live in real hotels every day. We’re looking for a Senior Project Manager to take on the projects where several systems, departments and vendors have to move at the same time. Above all, we’re looking for a team player.

• Lead several system projects in parallel, from business case to go-live and handover into daily operations
• Bring together Commerce, Finance, Operations and Legal with our development partner and external software vendors
• Own scope, timeline and budget, and handle changes in a structured way
• Report to department steerings and senior management, and raise risks early
• Be a sparring partner for the other PMs and help us improve how we run projects

• You’re a real team player. You get people on board by convincing them, not by pushing them out of the way
• Strong communication skills. You know how to talk to a hotel manager, a developer, a vendor and a VP, and you adjust your style to each of them
• Solid stakeholder management: you know who needs to be involved when, and you can say no when it’s needed, without burning bridges
• 5+ years leading IT or system projects end-to-end, ideally software implementations or integrations
• Experience with external vendors and projects across several departments
• Enough technical understanding of interfaces and data flows to talk to developers
• A structured way of working: plans, owners, dates
• Fluent English
• Будет плюсом: German is a plus; Hospitality, travel or retail background and a PM certification (e.g. PRINCE2) are a plus; Finance know-how is a strong plus, e.g. experience with finance projects or a background in the finance sector
