Project Manager; Implementation Lead

Position: Project Manager (Implementation Lead)
Who We Are
Magnus Energy helps organisations navigate the energy transition. As one of Europe’s leading energy consultancies, we support system operators, energy suppliers, regulatory authorities and many others from strategy through to delivery. From setting a new direction and reshaping organisations, to moving projects forward, delivering change and optimising operations.

Our diverse international team includes technical experts, program managers, management consultants and pragmatic problem‑solvers. With 17+ nationalities across five European hubs, we cover every aspect of the energy transition - working towards a secure, sustainable and affordable energy system, and a bright future for all.

What You Will Do
As a Program Manager (Implementation Lead), you will take a leading role in the delivery of complex single and/or multi‑company programs and projects in the energy sector. You will operate independently in multi‑client environments where you can reach the objectives with the proper balance between business diplomacy and perseverance.

You will work in settings where digitalisation, cybersecurity and architectural coherence are critical, but also limiting in terms of technical solutions. You should consider these challenges as an opportunity to be innovative.

You will make direct impact on project outcomes, while contributing to longer‑term strategic goals of our clients.

In this role, you will:

Lead and drive technical projects end‑to‑end with a content‑curious mindset (not only coordination, but also providing guidance and knowledge)

Structure and manage delivery, including planning, risks, dependencies and reporting

Take ownership of stakeholder alignment across business and IT representatives, vendors and other integration parties

Maintain a balance between diplomacy and pushing to reach the business goals on time

Bridge IT and business by explaining technical limitations in business terms, and turning business priorities into precise technical requirements

Who We Are Looking For
A proactive diplomatic leader, who consistently goes the extra mile and aims to exceed client expectations, with a broad interest in the European energy transition and the technology that is leading this.

You bring a strong consultancy mindset; structuring complex problems, forming clear perspectives, and guiding clients toward decisions. You combine analytical strength with interpersonal skills and are comfortable engaging stakeholders across both technical and business domains.

You also have experience in IT project or program management, preferably in complex multistakeholder environments and are eager to contribute to tomorrow's energy sector.

In addition you have:

A Master's degree with proven experience in project and program management, with clear ownership of delivery (around 5-7 years)

Experience working in complex stakeholder environments, including vendors and cross‑functional teams

Proven experience with (project/program) management of IT / IT‑OT implementation projects.
