Do not apply if you do not have hands-on SEO project management experience.

Role Overview
We are a high-performance SEO agency seeking a rigorous, detail-oriented Senior Project Manager who takes time budgets, resource allocation, and delivery accountability seriously.
This role requires someone who is comfortable enforcing standards, protecting margins, and holding teams accountable, while still collaborating effectively across departments.
If you avoid hard conversations, overlook numbers, or prefer a loose, unstructured environment, this role will not be a fit.
Core Responsibilities
• Own time budgets and resource allocation per client and ensure hours are planned and used intentionally
• Track planned vs actual hours weekly and immediately flag underutilization or overages
• Manage and oversee task execution across SEO, content, link building, client success, and automation teams
• Assign, monitor, and enforce task completion in ClickUp
• Identify bottlenecks early and take corrective action before delivery timelines or margins are impacted
• Enforce SOP adherence and process discipline across teams
• Provide clear, numbers-driven weekly project and utilization reports to the Head of Operations
• Hold tea
• Assist with structured onboarding of new clients into ClickUp and internal systems
Required Experience & Skills
• Minimum 5 years of Project Management experience in a digital or agency environment
• Demonstrated experience managing large, cross-functional teams
• Proven use of ClickUp, Teamwork,
• Strong command of time tracking, budget awareness, and utilization management
• Excellent written and verbal English communication
• Exceptionally organized, detail-oriented, and process-driven
• Comfortable enforcing standards, pushing back when needed, and escalating issues
• SEO project management experience is required
• Ability to understand SEO deliverables, dependencies, and execution timelines
Behavioral & Work Style Fit (Important)
This role strongly favors candidates with the following behavioral profile:
• High Conscientiousness (High C): precise, structured, detail- and metrics-focused
• Moderate Dominance (Moderate D): able to enforce standards and hold teams accountable
• Low–Moderate Influence (I): direct, not overly people-pleasing
• Moderate Steadiness (S): reliable, consistent, calm under pressure
If you are highly relationship-driven, avoid enforcement, or dislike working with numbers, budgets, and metrics, this role will not be a fit.
Benefits
• Company-paid benefits and performance incentives after 90 days
• Paid vacation leave after 3 months
• 13th-month bonus after 6 months (contingent on full-year employment)
• Stable, long-term role with a growing international agency
Screening Questions (Required)
Please answer all questions clearly and specifically. Incomplete or vague answers will not be considered.
1) Automation & Leverage
In a perfect scenario, what automations or systems would you implement as a Project Manager so you can focus on high-value work such as planning, enforcement, and optimization rather than manual coordination? Be specific.
2) Time Budget & Utilization Scenario
A client has a 40-hour monthly budget. After reviewing the last two months, you notice the team is consistently using only 28–30 hours, but tasks are being completed “on time.” Walk us through exactly how you would identify the issue and what actions you would take.
3) Behavioral Profile (DISC)
Please provide your most recent DISC assessment results (D, I, S, C). If you do not have an updated DISC, take one and include your results. Briefly explain how your DISC profile shows up in how you manage projects, time budgets, and accountability.
4) SEO Project Management Experience
Describe how you have managed SEO deliverables across multiple clients at the same time. How did you prioritize work, track progress, and ensure the correct SEO activities were executed each month? Include examples of deliverables you were responsible for overseeing.

• Include “PMFOCUSED” in your subject line
• Briefly describe:
– The largest team you’ve managed
– How you tracked time, budgets, or utilization
– The PM tools you used
• Attach your resume or a link to your OnlineJobs profile
Final Note
This role is for disciplined operators who value structure, clarity, and accountability.
If that describes you, we want to hear from you.
