Description
About us We're an independent European digital product studio with a strong track record of delivering market-defining strategies and products for enterprises and governments. With about 200 talented people across three countries, premium AI capabilities and a diverse portfolio of international clients, we define, design and ship high-quality digital products, strategies and software. From global cloud-based platforms and large-scale apps to medical devices, banking software and augmented reality experiences. In a nutshell: if it lives and breathes digital, it’s what we do best. Become a part of our team At In The Pocket, you join a multidisciplinary team of designers, engineers, strategists and data specialists who care about the work as much as the people they work with. We work in small, autonomous teams that stay close to our clients and their users, and we give everyone the space to take ownership, speak up and grow. You’ll learn from colleagues across our studios, ship products that reach thousands or even millions of people and help shape what digital can do for leading organisations in Europe. For this role, you'll be embedded in a dedicated team working closely with one of our key enterprise clients. You'll be the operational backbone that keeps delivery on track and the client relationship healthy. What you’ll do  As a Digital Project Manager at In The Pocket, you keep complex digital builds on the rails. You own the planning, drive technical follow-up and act as the trusted point of contact between the team and the client. You don't need to be the deepest technical expert in the room, but you understand enough about how digital products are built to spot risks early, ask the right questions and steer the conversation in the right direction. Planning & delivery You own the project plan: scope, timeline, milestones and dependencies. You keep them realistic, visible and up to date. You coordinate the day-to-day work of a cross-functional team and make sure the right things happen at the right time. You proactively manage risks, blockers and trade-offs, and you escalate clearly when something needs a decision. You take ownership of delivery: not just shaping good work, but making sure it actually ships, on time and within budget. Technical follow-up You follow up on technical progress and understand what the team is building, well enough to track it, challenge it and translate it. You have solid foundational knowledge of application development and web development. You understand how these systems are built, what tends to go wrong, and what "done" really means. You bring enough product sense to flag when an idea is a bad one, to point out that option M also exists, and to nudge the team and client toward the better trade-off, before time and money are spent in the wrong direction. Cloud and infrastructure knowledge is a plus. Where you don't have the depth yourself, you know how to lean on the technical expertise within the team. Client communication You are the primary point of contact for the client and you build a relationship of trust and transparency. You communicate fluently at both levels: the technical follow-up with engineers and architects, and the clear, accessible updates for business and marketing stakeholders. You're comfortable having at least weekly contact moments with the client on site (Ghent region), so you stay close to their reality. You easily switch hats to match whoever is in the room, adapting your language and focus across design, engineering, architects, project managers, business and marketing. You manage expectations actively, keep stakeholders aligned on priorities and trade-offs, and make sure there are no surprises. You translate between the client's needs and the team's reality, and you keep both sides moving in the same direction. AI fluency You actively use AI in your own day-to-day work to plan fas
