Job Description
pubGENIUS is seeking an experienced Digital Project Manager to join their global team. This role is ideal for someone with strong product management instincts who can expertly manage client engagements from initial contact through to final delivery.
This is more than just an administrative role; we need a proactive individual who understands digital product development, can critically assess requirements, lead discovery phases, and ensure that shipped products effectively solve client problems.
In this position, you will be responsible for simultaneously managing multiple client projects across various industries and time zones, ensuring that scope, timelines, and budgets remain on track. You will collaborate closely with clients to define project scope, deliverables, and success criteria from the outset. A key part of your role will involve leading the discovery phase for new clients, asking insightful questions to grasp their business needs before development begins.
You will break down complex requirements into manageable iterations for the engineering team, and maintain all project documentation, backlogs, and roadmaps to ensure alignment. The role includes facilitating Agile ceremonies such as sprint planning, backlog grooming, retrospectives, and reviews. You will also be responsible for providing clients with regular, clear updates on project status, risks, and decisions, and will contribute to scoping, pricing, and proposal writing for new engagements.
Collaboration with design, engineering, and QA teams is essential to ensure delivered features meet client expectations and user needs. You will monitor project health using relevant KPIs and proactively identify and flag risks. Testing completed features to verify they meet agreed requirements before delivery is also a key responsibility.
