Senior Capacity Manager Jobs in Texas (NOW HIRING)

Jeppesen ForeFlight is seeking a Senior Director of Professional Services Business Operations to serve as the operational backbone of the global Professional Services organization. This is a senior leadership role with accountability for the financial health, resource efficiency, and operational reporting that enable Jeppesen ForeFlight's PS teams to deliver software implementations with consistency, predictability, and scale.

Reporting to the Senior Vice President of Professional Services, you will lead a team of business analysts and operations team members, and will own three interconnected functions: financial planning and performance reporting, global resource and capacity management, and PS operational systems. You will work in close partnership with PS delivery leaders, Finance, HR, and the Chief Customer Officer Operations team to ensure that the Professional Services organization has the data visibility and operational infrastructure required to perform at the highest level — including contributing PS performance insights directly into Board-level reporting.

The ideal candidate is a strategic operator who combines analytical rigor with a systems-thinking mindset and strong leadership skills. You are equally comfortable presenting financial performance to executive leadership, redesigning a resource management process, and collaborating across organizational boundaries to deliver unified, accurate reporting on the health of the PS business. This is a fully remote position. Candidates in the following locations are encouraged to apply: USA, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, and UK.

• Foster a culture of operational excellence, data integrity, continuous improvement, and proactive service to the PS delivery organization and its leadership
• Partner closely with the SVP of Professional Services and PS functional leaders to align Business Operations priorities with the strategic direction of the organization

• Own the annual financial planning and budgeting process for the Professional Services organization, coordinating with Finance to develop revenue forecasts, cost models, headcount plans, and investment proposals
• Maintain continuous visibility into PS financial performance including revenue recognition, project margin, backlog, utilization-driven revenue, and services bookings and provide timely, accurate reporting to the SVP and PS leadership team
• Design and deliver executive-level financial dashboards and management reports that translate complex PS financial data into clear, actionable insights for senior leadership and cross-functional stakeholders
• Monitor PS financial KPIs against plan, identify variances early, and work with delivery leaders to develop and track corrective actions where performance diverges from targets
• Partner with Finance on revenue recognition compliance, project-level P&L reporting, and the financial governance requirements associated with professional services engagements
• Support strategic financial modeling for new service offerings, pricing structures, delivery model changes, and organizational investments, providing PS leadership with the data needed to make sound business decisions

• Own the global resource management function for Professional Services, including the frameworks, processes, and tooling used to allocate consultants, project managers, and other delivery staff across the project portfolio
• Maintain a continuous, accurate view of PS capacity across all regions and product lines, enabling delivery leaders to make informed decisions about staffing, hiring, and project scheduling
• Develop and manage resource utilization reporting, tracking billable and non-billable utilization across the global PS workforce and providing actionable insights to optimize deployment and minimize bench time
• Partner with PS delivery leaders, HR, and Finance to align resource capacity with project pipeline demand, supporting proactive hiring decisions and preventing capacity shortfalls that could affect delivery commitments
• Design and enforce resource allocation governance processes including resource request workflows, conflict resolution protocols, and escalation paths that balance the competing demands of a large, multi-product delivery organization
• Identify trends in resource demand, skills gaps, and regional capacity imbalances, and provide data-driven recommendations to PS leadership on workforce planning and organizational development priorities

• Serve as the business owner of PS Systems including Primavera and Rocketlane, Jeppesen ForeFlight's PS project and customer portal platform, ensuring it is configured, maintained, and used in a way that accurately supports PS delivery workflows, customer engagement, and operational reporting

• Identify opportunities to improve how the PS team uses Rocketlane, Primavera and other operational tools to reduce administrative burden, increase delivery transparency, and improve the customer experience

• Serve as the primary PS contributor to Board-level reporting, synthesizing Professional Services performance data including financial results, delivery outcomes, customer health, and operational metrics into clear, accurate, and compelling narratives for executive and Board audiences
• Partner closely with the Chief Customer Officer (CCO) Operations team to align PS reporting frameworks and metrics with the broader customer organization's performance view, ensuring that Professional Services data consistently represented in company-wide reporting
• Provide the CCO Operations team with timely, reliable PS input for cross-functional reviews, Board reporting packages, and strategic planning materials
• Serve as the primary point of accountability for the accuracy and timeliness of PS data contributed to any company-wide operational or executive reporting process

• Design and manage the PS business rhythm including weekly operational reviews, monthly business reviews, and quarterly planning cycles ensuring that leadership has the cadence and data needed to run the organization effectively
• Prepare and deliver high-quality executive presentations and cross-functional business reviews on behalf of the SVP of Professional Services
• Support PS strategic planning processes, coordinating input from functional leaders, synthesizing organizational priorities, and translating strategy into operational plans with clear owners, timelines, and success metrics
