Implementation Consultant

Position Summary

The Implementation Consultant is responsible for leading customers through a successful implementation of Big Time products, from project kickoff through go‑live. This role manages the implementation project, guides customers through configuration and best practices, and ensures they are prepared to confidently use Big Time in their day‑to‑day operations.

Success in this role requires strong project management skills, consultative problem solving, and the ability to translate business requirements into effective solutions within the Big Time platform.

• Establish and partner on the overall relationship with each assigned client throughout implementation with the Relationship Manager.
• Identify the client’s core business drivers early and use them as the through line for kickoff calls, working sessions, follow‑up emails, and the close‑out meeting.
• Build and maintain an Implementation and project timeline, sharing an updated version with the client before every session.
• Identify at‑risk implementations early, create an at‑risk record, and build a recovery plan in partnership with the Relationship Manager.
• Own the end‑to‑end data migration process, partnering with Escalation Engineers when custom scripting or technical expertise is required.
• Close out each implementation once the client is stabilized and confident, and capture client sentiment through a satisfaction survey.

• Escalate platform issues or enhancement requests that put an implementation at risk, and keep the Service’s Management Team informed of escalation impact.

• Provide consultative guidance on Big Time best practices for time tracking, billing, invoicing, reporting, and project management, helping customers maximize the value of the platform.

• Work closely with Sales, Solutions Consulting, Customer Success, Product, and Support to keep the client’s experience consistent end‑to‑end.
• Flag areas of concern before an implementation kicks off by consulting with Sales and Solutions Consulting on anything that may require nonstandard configuration.

• Maintain accurate, current notes in Salesforce for every engagement, including the Implementation Plan, timeline, and key decisions.
• Keep engagement status, at‑risk flags, and PS Opportunity fields current so leadership has visibility into pipeline health.

• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple concurrent client engagements against defined timelines and milestones.
• Comfort building and maintaining project plans and status reporting without heavy oversight.
