A project manager who keeps deadlines met and people moving.

From kickoff to delivery, I plan the work, assign owners, run check-ins and follow up until tasks are done.

What does a remote project manager do?

A remote project manager plans a project, breaks it into tasks with owners and deadlines, runs check-ins, tracks risks and reports progress, all without being in the same room as the team. I manage website builds, product launches, marketing campaigns and internal projects for founders who are tired of chasing people for updates.

What is included

What you get.

  1. Project plan and scheduleScope, milestones, timeline and a work breakdown structure.
  2. A project trackerTasks, owners and due dates in Monday.com, ClickUp, Asana, Trello, Jira or Airtable.

  5. Project documentsProject charter, scope statement, budget, communication plan and RAID log.
  6. Risk and deadline trackingRoadblocks flagged early so problems are handled before they cost time.
Who it is for

This is a fit if you are:

  • Founders running several projects with a remote team
  • Businesses with a launch or website build that keeps stalling
  • Agencies that need delivery managed across clients
  • Teams with no single source of truth for who is doing what
Outcome

  • Projects finish on time with clear ownership at every step
  • You get updates instead of chasing people
  • Risks are visible early

Questions

Project Management: common questions.

Client, Online Business Manager contractVerified review on Upwork
What kinds of projects do you manage?

Website and LMS builds, product and course launches, digital marketing campaigns, cloud and tool migrations, and internal operations projects. I have managed projects for marketing, web development, education, events and e-commerce businesses.

The one your team will open every day. I work in Monday.com, ClickUp, Asana, Trello, Notion, Jira and Airtable, and I recommend based on team size, how visual your work is, and what you already pay for.
