Job Description
At Pixl Digital, we get new projects every week. Some of them take 2 weeks to finish, some last for 2 months, some go on for a year.
- Some have add-ons
- Some involve maintenance
- Some are returning customers.
- Someone needs to manage all these projects.
- Someone needs to coordinate between clients, sales, developers, designers, and freelancers.
- Someone needs to set deadlines for every stage of every project, and ruthlessly hound everyone to complete the work by then.
- Someone needs to make sure everything goes smoothly.
That someone is you.
"Managing" a project with us typically involves a lot of written communication, via monday.com, our project management app, Whatsapp and email (duh), and the occasional video call. You may have to record some videos as well, such as handover videos or mini-tutorials for clients.
Job Requirements
- BE VERY meticulous in your work. Juggling multiple tasks should be as natural to you as breathing air.
- You need to be borderline OCD, where you’re unexplainably happy when you see this, and insanely annoyed when you see thi.
- You should be the very epitome of organisation - absolutely necessary to juggle between our 20+ ongoing projects, and we intend to grow that number with time.
- Familiar with project management methodologies like JIRA, Agile, Scrum, Kanban, Waterfall, and/or others. You should also be comfortable with technology and the internet in general - we are a tech company after all.
- Also, we are looking for someone who speaks native English, watches English TV, thinks in English, and is deeply ingrained with western culture (prove it by taking this test – apply only if you’re in C1 or C2).
You should already own a smartphone and a fat internet connection (which you already should have if you’re a net addict like the rest of us here)(you can use our laptop or your own), and have your own transport. Diplomas or degrees are a bonus, but not needed. You can be a high school grad for all I care, as long as you can do the work and are always hungry to learn more.
ONCE U MADE IT. (THAT'S A BIG IF)
If selected, you’ll enjoy a freedom very few companies can offer especially for a Project Manager role. Flexible working hours, wear-anything-you-want, no blocking of Facebook or games (yes we play while working), no late-night shifts or weekend work (mostly), and an overall chill and fun office culture. Yes, we do work hard and are fiercely driven to achieve deadlines while delivering quality work – but life’s too short to work all day. Join us if this is your idea of a great working experience. Oh and of course there’s a competitive salary if you’re really all that great and can prove it.
We’re very selective, and there’s only one spot available, for Dec 2018 onwards.
Wow us. Good luck.
