GTM Post-Merger Integration Project Manager
ReltioReltio is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace. We are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity or Veteran status.
Role Description We are seeking an experienced Contract Project Manager to serve as the operational backbone of this effort. You will coordinate seven parallel GTM workstreams — spanning strategy, commercialization, field enablement, revenue operations, marketing, partner strategy, and renewals — keeping cross-functional teams aligned, decisions moving, and progress visible to GTM leadership. You will proactively identify blockers, drive clarity on ownership, and hold teams to commitments in a fast-moving, ambiguous, post-acquisition environment. This role operates at the intersection of two organizations, requiring someone who earns trust through partnership, adapts to existing structures rather than fighting them, and can navigate competing priorities with low ego and high credibility. Key Responsibilities - Program Structure and Visibility - Support Reltio + SAP team members in building and maintaining the master GTM integration program plan across all seven workstreams. - Track milestones, owners, dependencies, risks, questions, and blockers; escalate where needed to GTM leadership or post-merger integration PMO. - Establish and run a consistent cadence of workstream check-ins and executive reporting. - Maintain a consolidated view of GTM readiness as Reltio progresses toward initial GTM integration and deeper BDC technical integration. - Workstream Coordination You will help coordinate seven workstreams. Each workstream has Reltio and SAP designated leads and a team accountable for the work. This role keeps them connected and accountable — translating program milestones into clear ownership and deadlines, tracking progress, surfacing blockers, flagging risks, resolving cross-workstream dependencies, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks. - GTM Strategy — Reltio's market position, selling motions, and operating model are clearly defined and running. - Commercialization — Reltio is on the SAP price list with the commercial infrastructure needed to sell, contract, and recognize revenue. - Field Enablement — Reltio and SAP sellers have what they need to engage, qualify, and close. - Revenue Operations — Pipeline, forecasting, reporting, and lead-to-cash approach are integrated into SAP’s process. - Marketing Strategy — Reltio's positioning, demand generation, and market presence are aligned to new position within SAP BDC. - Partner Strategy — Key partners are enabled, incentivized, and actively co-selling. - Renewals — Existing customers are retained, protected, and set up for long-term success through the transition. - Cross-Functional Alignment - Surface dependencies and facilitate decision-making between workstreams before they become blockers. - Support GTM leadership in preparing for joint planning sessions. - Build and maintain productive working relationships with SAP program and project managers — operating as a collaborative counterpart, not a competing authority, and adapting to SAP's operating rhythms and structures where required. Qualifications - 7+ years of project or program management experience — OR fewer years combined with a recognized PM certification. - Demonstrated experience working within or closely alongside a Sales, Revenue, or GTM organization. - Background in SaaS and/or enterprise data software. - Proven ability to manage multiple simultaneous workstreams with different owners, timelines, and levels of structure. - Strong written and verbal communication skills — able to synthesize complex, multi-threaded inputs into clear leadership updates. - Proficiency with project management and collaboration tools that currently bridge Google Suite and Microsoft environments. - Ability to work independently in a fast-paced, cross-functional, and distributed environment. - Demonstrated ability to navigate organizational politics with maturity and low ego. Preferred Skills - Prior experience with post-acquisition or large-scale GTM integration programs, particularly as part of an acquired company or in a subsidiary/partner relationship. - PMP, PMI-ACP, CAPM, or equivalent. Contract Details - Type: 1099 Contractor or agency-based - Hours: 30 hours per week for duration of program - Duration: 6 months, with potential for renewal - Compensation: Competitive, based on experience - Overall Market Range: $50,000 — $100,000 USD
