Project Manager

Keep brand, web and content projects moving - scope, schedule and the hundred small decisions in between.

  • Dubai, UAE
  • Full-time / Freelance
  • Onsite / Hybrid

You are the spine of the studio. You turn a signed proposal into a plan, keep designers and developers unblocked, and make sure the client always knows where things stand. You care about the work, not just the Gantt chart.

What you'll do

  • Own project scope, timelines and budgets from kickoff to handover.
  • Run the weekly rhythm: standups, client check-ins, delivery reviews.
  • Translate creative feedback into clear, actionable tasks for the team.
  • Spot risk early - scope creep, slipping dependencies, quiet blockers.
  • Keep documentation, assets and approvals in order for every project.

What we're looking for

  • 3+ years managing creative, digital or marketing projects.
  • Fluent with a project tool (Notion, ClickUp, Asana, Linear or similar).
  • Strong written English and calm, direct client communication.
  • Enough design and web literacy to push back on a bad estimate.

Nice to have

  • Agency or studio background.
  • Experience with UAE-based clients.
