Project Manager

About us:

Clients rely on us for laptop setup, Intune enrolment, backup monitoring and after-hours help when something breaks. Our technicians handle onsite and remote support for medical offices, accounting firms and manufacturers on fixed monthly contracts. After-hours on-call comes around every fourth week.

Our team is growing and we are hiring a Project Manager. Looking for someone who runs a tight meeting, writes a status report people actually read and escalates early. Our headquarters is in Dubai, and about a third of the team works remotely from other countries. This is a full-time remote role. We use an employer of record in the UK, so you get a proper employment contract, not a freelance agreement. Working hours follow Gulf time, Monday to Friday. Communication happens mostly in Slack and short video calls.

Duties:

• Escalate blockers before they turn into missed dates
• Handle change requests and their effect on scope, time and cost
• Close projects with lessons learned and a clean handoff to operations
• Build and maintain project plans in Smartsheet or MS Project
• Track risks, issues and decisions in an RAID log
• Report status to sponsors and steering committees

Required qualifications:

• 2+ years of project management experience
• Strong written status reporting
• Proficient in Smartsheet, MS Project or a similar tool

Pay and benefits:

Compensation: £47,000 - £64,000 per annum

• Paid sick days
• 24 days paid time off
• Co-working space stipend
• Health insurance through our employer-of-record partner
• Flexible hours
• Wellness allowance

Unfortunately we cannot offer visa sponsorship for this role.

No agencies please.
