Industry: Supply chain finance / regulated B2B fintech (factoring, reverse factoring, dynamic discounting, early settlement), serving financial institutions, buyers, and suppliers across MENA Qureos is hiring for this role on behalf of a confidential client. About The Company Our client is a supply chain finance platform connecting financial institutions, buyers, and suppliers across MENA and beyond. They run a regulated B2B fintech platform, with cloud SaaS deployments and on-premises setups for bank clients, covering factoring, reverse factoring, dynamic discounting, and early settlement, built and operated by a small senior team. The role The company is looking for a project manager to run delivery across client implementations and the engineering sprint cycle. Deployments are real bank projects: scoping, environment setup, integrations, user acceptance testing, go-live, and hypercare, often in parallel across several institutions. You will keep those projects moving, keep the two-week sprints healthy, and act as the operational link between engineering, product, and client teams. Responsibilities • Plan and run client implementation projects end to end, from kickoff and scoping through UAT, go-live, and hypercare. • Own project plans, timelines, and risk registers, and keep them current as scope evolves. • Track delivery in ClickUp and report progress accurately to leadership and client stakeholders. • Support sprint planning, daily standups, and retrospectives with the product owner, and protect the team’s capacity. • Coordinate UAT cycles with bank clients: collect and triage feedback, drive bug resolution, and manage sign-off gates. • Manage dependencies across parallel deployments, cloud and on-premises, and escalate blockers early. • Work with engineering on release planning, change control, and rollback readiness for regulated clients. • Maintain project documentation, including status reports, meeting notes, decision logs, and handover material. Required qualifications • At least 3 to 4 years of experience managing software delivery projects, ideally client-facing, and in the banking industry. • Working knowledge of agile delivery in practice: sprints, backlogs, estimation, and definitions of ready and done. • Experience running UAT with enterprise clients and driving formal sign-off. • Fluency with project management tools such as ClickUp or Jira, including dashboards and reporting. • A solid grasp of risk management and scope control, with the judgment to push back when needed. • Enough technical literacy to hold a conversation with engineers about APIs, environments, and releases. • Excellent written and spoken English. • A bachelor’s degree in computer science, business, or a related field. Nice to have • Delivery experience in fintech, banking, or another regulated industry with formal change control. • A PMP, PRINCE2, or scrum certification. • Arabic or French. • Experience working with hybrid or distributed teams. Team values • Honest status reporting, including bad news early. • Clear documentation and knowledge sharing. • Respect for the team’s focus and capacity. • Continuous improvement over blame. • Client trust built on predictable delivery.
