Objectives

We are looking for an Engagement Manager to own the end-to-end delivery of PMAX Consulting’s flagship growth-transformation engagements. You will turn ambiguous client business problems into client-ready recommendations and implementable systems, lead the engagement team, and manage CEO/CMO/CFO relationships — making sure each engagement across our portfolio (strategy, operating system, marketing investment/measurement) lands as decisions, systems and measurable impact, not slideware.

Job Description

Solutions you will deliver

  •     Growth Strategy & Transformation Blueprint — 10–14 week engagements: where-to-play / how-to-win, capability roadmap, investment plan, transformation governance, Board sign-off.
  •     Growth Operating System Design — KPI tree, planning cadence, budget governance, campaign operating rhythm, ROI dashboard, agency scorecard + change management & pilot.
  •     Marketing Effectiveness & Investment System — MMM / attribution / dynamic budget allocation; CFO–CMO investment governance.
  •     Gateway diagnostics, C-suite workshops, and Embedded Squad / Growth PMO for implementation handoff.

Engagement Delivery & Problem Solving

  •     Own scope, timeline, workstreams, output quality and margin of engagements end-to-end (typically 10–14 weeks, phased Diagnose → Design → Operating Model → Transformation/Pilot).
  •     Translate ambiguous client problems into structured workplans (issue trees, hypotheses, analysis plans) across strategy, operating-system and measurement engagements.
  •     Architect deliverables: where-to-play/how-to-win strategy, operating-system components (KPI tree, cadence, governance, dashboards), and investment/measurement frameworks.

Client & C-suite Engagement

  •     Facilitate CEO/CMO/CFO workshops and Gateway diagnostics; run Board endorsement and sign-off ceremonies.
  •     Lead change management and stakeholder alignment; engage CFO/CMO credibly on marketing ROI and investment decisions.

Team Leadership & Quality

  •     Lead and develop the engagement team (Senior Consultant, Consultant); ensure analytical rigor across benchmarking, MMM/attribution and operating-system design.
  •     Review decks, models and recommendations; raise output quality and reduce review loops.

Commercial, Governance & Handoff

  •     Support proposal development, scoping and pricing; own project margin and manday burn.
  •     Stand up transformation office / PMO governance; ensure clean handoff to Embedded Squad / Growth PMO or PMax Enterprise BUs.
  •     Build reusable assets: frameworks, proposal templates, diagnosis checklists, dashboards and case studies.

Job Requirements

Skills & Knowledge & Qualification

Must have

  •     Bachelor’s degree in a related field and 6+ years of experience, or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
  •     Proven experience owning consulting/transformation projects end-to-end and managing clients; at least 2–3 years in a leading/managerial role.
  •     Delivery experience in at least one portfolio area: growth/marketing strategy, marketing operating-model & governance design, or marketing measurement & investment (MMM/attribution/ROI).
  •     Ability to design operating systems (KPI trees, planning cadences, budget governance, dashboards) and lead transformation/PMO governance.
  •     Comfort engaging CFO/CMO on marketing ROI and investment allocation.
  •     Exceptional structured problem-solving, business acumen and deck storytelling (Pyramid Principle, MECE); strong PM discipline.
  •     Excellent communication in Vietnamese and English; thrives in ambiguity.

Good to have

  •     Hands-on with marketing mix modeling / attribution, martech / CRM-lifecycle, or BI dashboards.
  •     Experience with AI-enabled growth workflows and capability/academy program design.
  •     Experience working with CEOs/founders; vertical depth in Auto, Beauty, Education, Healthcare or Home.

PMAX-er Identification

  •     Client Impact: Everything we do is ultimately to deliver real client impact and value.
  •     Innovation: Drive change and innovative new ideas to create more value for clients, teams, and society.
  •     People Development: Attract, develop, and retain the most talented people. Development is a responsibility, not a choice, of both the individual and the organization.
  •     Integrity: Be honest and show a consistent and uncompromising adherence to what is right, even if it is at our own cost.
  •     Teamwork & Fun: The cooperative and collaborative effort of a team to achieve a common goal, and building a joyful & enjoyable atmosphere for everyone.
  •     Extreme Ownership: Own everything in your world to an extreme degree. You are responsible not just for tasks you directly control, but for all those that affect whether your task is successful.

  •     Flexible working time with 4 days working from home per month and 15 paid leaves per year.
  •     Insurance on full salary (SHUI).
