    What You'll Do

    Enterprise Implementation Delivery

    • Own end-to-end project management for Loop’s largest and most complex enterprise implementations, from kick-off through post-launch hypercare and handoff to Customer Success.
    • Lead deep discovery sessions with client stakeholders to document business and technical requirements, configure Loop’s platform, and ensure the delivered solution precisely addresses client needs.
    • Develop and execute comprehensive implementation plans with clear timelines, milestones, and deliverables—coordinating across engineering, operations, and client teams to ensure on-time delivery.
    • Facilitate kick-off calls, weekly status meetings, executive check-ins, and milestone reviews—both virtually and on-site.
    • Lead process mapping and workflow whiteboarding sessions; produce internal and client-facing documentation for workflows and SOPs.
    • Drive change management conversations with clients, advising on business process transformation and best practices.
    • Ensure clean handoffs to Customer Success, setting up accounts for long-term success and retention.

    Strategic & Cross-Functional Influence

    • Partner with Sales and Pre-Sales on scoping and technical discovery for strategic, complex deals—serving as an implementation SME during the sales cycle.
    • Work directly with Loop’s Technical Architect to scope use cases for the product roadmap and advocate for client-driven product enhancements.
    • Proactively identify and communicate implementation risks, escalation points, and opportunities to internal and external stakeholders.
    • Collaborate with Operations to ensure configured products are appropriately supported for ongoing client servicing.
    • Serve as a cross-functional escalation point for complex implementation issues, driving resolution with urgency and clarity.

    Team & Practice Development

    • Mentor and support junior Implementation Managers—sharing domain knowledge, reviewing deliverables, and helping them navigate complex situations.
    • Contribute to the development and continuous improvement of implementation playbooks, templates, and methodology standards.
    • Help define and refine best practices for onboarding, configuration, and client communication across the team.

    About You

    • 5-8+ years of customer-facing experience in implementation, project/program management, or solutions delivery—preferably in supply chain, logistics, or B2B SaaS.
    • Proven track record delivering complex, enterprise-scale implementations end-to-end with minimal oversight.
    • Deep domain expertise in transportation, logistics, freight audit, or supply chain technology.
    • Experience managing senior to executive-level stakeholders (Director through C-suite) throughout an implementation lifecycle.
    • Highly autonomous—able to prioritize, problem-solve, and drive outcomes across multiple concurrent projects in a fast-paced environment.
    • Strong analytical and data-driven mindset; able to translate implementation data and client outcomes into ROI narratives.
    • Excellent written and verbal communication skills—executive-ready, clear, and concise.
    • Demonstrated ability to lead process mapping and whiteboard complex operational workflows with clients and internal teams.
    • Experience mentoring others or informally leading cross-functional project teams.
    • Proficiency in project management tools (e.g., Monday.com, Linear, Jira, or similar).

    From its very conception, AutoLoop was designed to enhance the connection between dealerships and their customers. Using innovative technologies, we set out to build a marketing/communication platform that could maximize retention rates and ultimately boost dealer profits.

    It took years of development, practical applications and extensive field testing, but our unique concept of fully integrated programming has won us fans and accolades, and we have stood by our commitment to deliver a single-source advanced marketing platform.

We analyze millions of data files every day, seeking newer and better ways to target customers and influence their automotive decisions.
