At WorkWave, we are committed to empowering the hardworking service professionals who keep our world safe, clean, and beautiful. Through our powerful suite of software solutions, we give these business owners the tools they need to run their businesses more efficiently, increase profitability, and deliver exceptional service.
As we continue to expand, we are looking for an experienced Principal Consultant to join our Global Professional Services team. In this role, you will hold strategic and product authority for Enterprise-scale transformation programmes, acting as the deepest technical and product reference point for Timegate or TemplaCMS across EMEA.
Operating as a critical senior leader within our global Professional Services organization, you will extend the team's capability through people leadership, delivery methodology ownership, and high-level advisory input to Sales, Product, and customer executives.
This role demands an exceptional blend of commercial acumen, technical mastery, and executive gravitas. You will bring structure and clear vision to complex, multi-country engagements—converting early scope ambiguity into bounded, profitable delivery programmes while coaching Senior Consultants and Consultants to reach their full potential. This role is based in EMEA (UK working hours), with global reach supporting cross-regional resource sharing (including EMEA↔APAC) as required.
WHAT YOU'LL DO:
WHAT YOU'LL BRING:
Deep Product & Domain Mastery: Unrivalled technical and functional expertise in Timegate or TemplaCMS (or equivalent enterprise Workforce Management / Contract Management ERP platforms), paired with up-to-date knowledge of sector and market trends.
Enterprise Programme Track Record: Proven success owning multi-country, phased enterprise software transformations—demonstrating visible accountability for commercial outcomes including project margins, compliance, renewals, and expansion.
Commercial & Scoping Acumen: Extensive experience leading paid Discovery/Blueprinting phases, structuring complex SOWs, and defining clear boundaries between standard product capability and bespoke requirements.
Executive Influence & Persuasion: Exceptional communication and negotiation skills, with the ability to influence customer executives and internal stakeholders without relying on positional authority.
Analytical & Predictive Decision-Making: Ability to evaluate complex, ambiguous information rapidly, using data to anticipate risks well in advance rather than firefighting.
People Leadership & Mentorship: Demonstrated track record coaching, developing, and building resilience in senior delivery teams across multi-month or multi-year programme lifecycles.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: A proactive, business-first mindset with experience partnering across PS, Sales, Product, and Customer Success—including navigating global, cross-border resource-sharing models (such as EMEA↔APAC).
