hire project managers in africa

You hire a project manager when a project has a deadline, a budget and too many moving parts for the team to coordinate on its own. A good project manager gives you clear reporting, spots risks before they become delays and keeps every stakeholder aligned.

A few questions, one at a time, then pick a time for a 30-minute strategy call with our team.

What to check when screening

  • Look for projects they led from start to finish, with their size and outcome.
  • Check any project management certification, such as PMP or PRINCE2, as a plus rather than a must.
  • Confirm the planning tools they use, such as MS Project or Primavera.
  • Ask for an example of a status report they sent to a client or sponsor.

Questions to ask in interview

  • Your project is three weeks late. What do you tell the sponsor, and when?
  • How do you keep a supplier who is not part of your team on track?
  • Tell us about a risk you spotted early. What did you do about it?

Skills to look for

  • PMP or PRINCE2
  • MS Project or Primavera
  • Budget and cost control
  • Risk management
  • Stakeholder reporting
  • Agile methods
