Project Manager (Remote South Africa)
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.
