Coordinating Project Manager
Coordinating Project Manager
We are seeking an autonomous Project Manager to independently own the delivery of multiple concurrent product and project workstreams, spanning platform management, vendor coordination, and stakeholder engagement.
While a long resume might seem like a good idea, we care more about how you think. Operating at the cross-section of project delivery, cross-functional coordination, and business analysis, this position requires an active, hands-on contributor with strong agency.
A dynamic problem-solver would enjoy this role a lot. Daily work requires rapidly mastering a new domain, understanding granular requirements and transitioning into tactical execution, while adopting fluidly to ever-changing requirements.
Candidates must be able to work in Abu Dhabi five days a week. The role is on a federal government engagement requiring successful completion of a mandatory security clearance process done by the client themself.
What You’ll Own
- End-to-End Workstream Management: Take full ownership of assigned client-facing platforms and integration projects from requirements through to final execution.
- Proactive Closure: Independently drive deliverables, change requests, and client sign-offs to completion with minimal oversight required.
- Cross-Functional Syncing: Keep internal engineering, design, and QA teams aligned with external vendors so parallel workstreams never stall.
- Rigorous Quality Control: Review and audit project outputs across environments with the depth required to catch defects before they ever reach a client.
- Polished Client Communication: Serve as a reliable, polished interface between internal teams and clients, communicating updates and requirements clearly and appropriately.
Core Traits We Screen For
- High Autonomy: A track record of running projects smoothly with minimal need for managerial oversight.
- Situational Awareness: The habit of proactively identifying, analyzing, and flagging project risks before being asked.
- Rapid Domain Mastery: The ability to pick up technical concepts (APIs, release cycles, staging vs. production) quickly enough to ask intelligent questions and spot gaps.
- Composure Under Pressure: The mental flexibility to problem-solve on the fly when technical or client requirements shift unexpectedly.
Qualifications & Requirements
- Experience: 2 to 5 years in project or product coordination within a fast-paced environment.
- Technical Comfort: Familiarity with Jira and computer systems architecture concepts, you don’t need to code, but you must understand the environment you are testing well.
- Communication: Exceptional written and verbal English; Arabic is a strong plus.
Ideal Fit & Environment Profile
- Who Thrives Here: This role is tailored for an agile, early-to-mid career professional or a high-potential starter with a sharp intellect and a steep learning curve. We value a hunger for execution, resourcefulness, and self-directed learning over decades of rigid corporate tenure.
- Who Will Not Be a Fit: If you prefer highly-structured, predictable routines, or if your expertise relies strictly on pure process facilitation (e.g., managing standard agile ceremonies without contributing to tactical delivery), this environment will not suit your style.
Nice to Have
- Experience navigating UAE government/federal client landscapes.
- Familiarity with enterprise CMS or HR/performance platforms.
- Driving license
