About the job
Project Manager

Location: Remote (South Africa preferred), Offshore

The Opportunity

We are seeking a proactive, tenacious, and highly organized Project Manager to join our team. This is a critical remote role for a true “hustler” who can seamlessly manage projects across a global, multicultural team. This position is ideal for a mid- to senior-level professional, but we are also open to a greener candidate who demonstrates an aggressive, can-do attitude and a strong desire to learn.

Your role is to be the engine that drives projects forward. You will be responsible for meticulous organization, exceptional follow-up, and ensuring that our projects are delivered with urgency and attention to detail. We operate with a lean, responsive culture, and we need a team member who understands the hustle and is willing to go the extra mile to get the job done.

Key Responsibilities

Project Management & Organization:
Manage and organize projects using our internal client portal, ensuring all services and client information are up-to-date.
Perform manual management and organization of projects to ensure accuracy and clarity.
Maintain meticulous records and a strong attention to detail in all project-related documentation.
Client & Internal Communication:
Be a great communicator, providing regular check-ins and proactive updates to leaders and clients.
Use Slack, Dropbox, and email to facilitate communication and collaboration with a global team across different departments and cultures (including teams in Europe and India).
Exhibit a tenacity to push people forward, using organizational skills to ensure accountability and progress.
Follow-Up & Execution:
Consistently follow up on tasks and deliverables, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.
Take a bias for action and be a self-starter who doesn’t wait for direction.
Manage urgent requests and balance them with ongoing priorities.

What We’re Looking For

Experience:

We are open to mid- to senior-level talent, or an ambitious candidate with a demonstrated hustler’s mindset.

Skills:
Strong organizational skills and exceptional attention to detail.
A tenacious and proactive approach to project management.
Ability to make yourself available and work flexibly to balance urgent requests.
Experience with CRM or PM software (e.g., HubSpot, Asana) is a plus, but not required.
We use an in-house software to manage our projects, but prior experience with PM/CRM software is helpful to navigate through our systems.

Mindset:
Adaptable and sensitive to different cultures and communication styles.
A self-starter who is not complacent and is driven to grow.
A great communicator who is responsive, attentive, and urgent in their work.
Someone who understands the nature of a salaried role and is willing to be flexible in return for flexibility.
Location: South Africa is the preferred location to allow for a convenient overlap with both Europe and US Eastern time zones.
