Job Description

ABOUT NEXTVIEW CONSULTING Founded in 2009, Nextview Consulting helps organisations get real value from Salesforce and AI. We are a Salesforce partner and an Anthropic Select Partner in the Claude Partner Network. We joined it in the first wave of partners, with more than 20 certified Claude architects on the team. We also partner with Hubbl, whose scans let us measure a client’s Salesforce org against more than 6,000 others before any work starts. Together, that makes us an AI-enabled Salesforce partner: we design, build and run solutions where Salesforce, Claude and agents work together. Our design-led approach keeps the focus on what people actually need. Nextview is a Certified B Corporation and has been named a Great Place to Work seven years in a row. ABOUT THE JOB As a Senior Project Manager, you lead our larger Salesforce and AI programmes from first proposal to adoption. You make sure the client gets what was agreed: the right outcome, on time and within budget. You lead a multidisciplinary team of consultants, architects, developers and designers, often together with client teams and other partners. You are the main point of contact for the client's management, and you keep the account healthy beyond the project itself. WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING Own the full delivery cycle: scope, approach, planning, budget, risks and team set-up, from quotation to go-live and adoption. Lead programmes according to our Design-Led Approach and our Scrum Playbook, together with Scrum Masters and Product Owners. Manage multi-level stakeholders: client sponsors, IT and business leads, partners and our own management. Report progress, budget and risks clearly, and step in early when something goes off track. Run steering committees and make sure decisions are made and recorded. Shift engagements towards outcome-based and fixed-price agreements, and manage delivery against them. Spot new opportunities at the client and work with Sales and the Salesforce account team on the account plan. Coach project managers and Scrum Masters, and help improve our delivery standards. WORK AI-NATIVE, EVERY DAY Use Claude to prepare steering committees, turn meeting notes into decisions and actions, and keep RAID logs up to date. Speed up proposals, plans, status reports and change requests, and check the output with your own expertise. Use data from Hubbl scans and Process Intelligence to base scope and planning on facts, not assumptions. Help shape how our company uses AI: share prompts, skills and ways of working with colleagues. ABOUT YOU 7+ years of experience in project or programme management, including several years delivering Salesforce, CRM or SaaS implementations. Proven track record of leading large, multi-team programmes with a budget and commercial responsibility. Strong in Agile and Scrum, and comfortable with hybrid approaches when the client needs it. Experience with Jira. Experience with outcome-based or fixed-price delivery is a strong plus. Confidence in front of senior management. You give clear messages, even when the news is not good. Curiosity about generative AI and the habit of using tools like Claude in your daily work, while staying critical of the output. PMP, Prince2, SAFe or a comparable certification is a plus. Fluent in Dutch and English. Based in the Netherlands A valid work permit for full-time employment in the Netherlands. We do not sponsor visas. NEXTVIEW ENVIRONMENT At Nextview, AI is part of how we work every day, not just something we sell. You get access to Claude and the Anthropic training track, and support to get certified, both on Salesforce and on Claude. Through our Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) programme, you learn to deliver agentic AI end to end, from first analysis to a working solution in production. You work in small, mixed teams with experienced consultants, architects and developers, from our clubhouse in Amsterdam and Eindhoven and at client sites. We take on complex work for clients across Europe, and we give you room to take ownership, try new things and grow. Doing business responsibly matters to us. Through our 1% pledge on people, product and profit, we work with clients and partners on projects that make a real difference for our communities and the planet. WE ARE DIVERSITY At Nextview, we see and embrace the added value of diversity. We focus on talent and personality, regardless of your age, religion, gender, cultural or ethnic background, and physical or mental abilities. Whoever you are, you are more than welcome to apply for this position.
