Senior Project Manager (m/f/d)

ABOUT CODESPHERE

Codesphere is a Virtual Cloud Provider from Germany building the future of sovereign cloud infrastructure. Our platform gives enterprises and governments full sovereignty without giving up modern cloud capability – a vision recently validated by a series of multi-million European government tenders.

Since our founding in Karlsruhe in 2020, we’ve expanded into an international team of 60+ experts. Based in Karlsruhe and Munich and backed by top-tier investors, we are chasing a bold vision.

We’re scaling fast and would love for you to join us and grow alongside us 🚀

SUMMARY

Complex projects don't run themselves – and at Codesphere, we need someone who knows exactly how to make them work. As our Senior Project Manager (m/w/d), you'll take a high-stakes client engagement from setup to delivery: owning the structure, the stakeholders, and the outcome.

WHAT YOU'LL DRIVE

• Serve as the day-to-day point of contact for the client, building a relationship based on reliability and trust
• Keep all workstreams aligned across internal teams and external stakeholders
• Manage the full requirements lifecycle – from initial scoping through to change requests and sign-off
• Run acceptance testing and formal delivery milestones, ensuring nothing slips through the cracks
• Surface risks early, resolve blockers fast, and know when to escalate
• Translate between worlds – technical realities on one side, client expectations on the other
• Structure the engagement from the ground up – governance, cadence, tooling, and communication flows

WHAT MAKES YOU A GREAT FIT

• 4+ years delivering complex IT projects, ideally in a consulting or client-facing environment
• A natural at keeping things moving – structured enough to manage complexity, flexible enough to adapt when it shifts
• Technically literate without being a developer – you follow the conversation and ask the right questions
• A communicator who can hold a room: clear, direct, and credible with both technical and business audiences
• Fluent in German and English
• Willing to travel regularly to client sites and Codesphere offices

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU

• 30+ vacation days – including Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve, adding up to 32 days per year
• Meal allowance – up to 15 digital meal vouchers per month, worth up to €7.67 each
• Flexibility – hybrid work setup with mobile work options and flexibility around core hours
• Steep learning curve – fast-moving environment, real ownership, and a front-row seat to scaling a company
• Job-Rad – lease a bike through us, tax-free
• Gym access – stay active on site (Karlsruhe office only)
• Employee events – from team offsites to regular get-togethers
• Company pension scheme – company-supported pension to set you up for later
• Great public transport links – both offices are within walking distance of tram and metro stops
