About the role

As a Project Manager, you will be part of the key management team consisting of PMs, Head of Delivery, Sales, and board members. On a daily basis, you will perform end-to-end project management which we understand as taking responsibility for delivering the project under defined conditions (time, budget, scope, quality) .

PM is a partner and consultant for our client. We work together to ensure the final success of the product we implement. The key is the ability to establish relationships, an open attitude, and often patience with the client's ideas.

ItCraft delivers web and mobile apps. Our development teams consist of UX/UI Designers, developers, QAa, and DevOps. Product discovery is done during workshop sessions by the dedicated team most suitable for the project. Given the size of the projects we implement, the PM is often also an analyst on their projects. We do not expect you to know the technical details, but we require knowledge of the scope and participation in shaping the product.
