Project Manager, Midrand

We're looking for a results-driven, highly organised Operations-minded Project Manager with

strong exposure to Sales and Marketing. This person is not a traditional Marketing or Sales

Manager, but rather a strategic executor - someone who can plan, coordinate, and deliver

cross-functional projects, drive commercial outcomes, and ensure initiatives are implemented

efficiently, on time, and within budget.

This individual will serve as the link between strategy and execution, working closely with the

leadership team to turn ideas into actionable campaigns and projects that grow the brand,

generate leads, and improve overall business performance.

Key Responsibilities

Oversee and manage sales and marketing projects end-to-end, from planning and

budgeting to execution and post-implementation review.

Translate strategic objectives into detailed project plans with measurable deliverables

and clear accountability.

Coordinate cross-departmental collaboration, ensuring operations, sales, and marketing

efforts are aligned and mutually reinforcing.

Drive sales and marketing initiatives (campaigns, activations, community

engagement, events, digital campaigns, etc.) and track performance metrics.

Manage project budgets, ensuring initiatives are delivered within approved cost

frameworks and with measurable ROI.

Monitor progress against timelines and objectives, proactively identifying risks and

bottlenecks.

Mobilise and motivate team members across departments to meet milestones and

deliverables.

Support leadership with strategic planning, performance reporting, and operational

insights.

Build simple, effective systems for tracking projects, budgets, and outcomes.

Champion continuous improvement in how projects are scoped, executed, and reviewed.

Key Competencies

Strong project and operational management skills — structured, disciplined, and

execution-oriented.

Excellent strategic thinking and problem-solving abilities.

Strong commercial understanding and business acumen - can link operational activity

to revenue and growth outcomes.

Solid understanding of marketing and sales principles, including campaign execution,

funnel management, and customer engagement.

High people leadership capability - able to coordinate, influence, and drive

accountability across teams.

Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills.

Comfortable working in a fast-paced, agile environment where priorities shift and delivery

is key.

Data-driven and analytical — able to evaluate project success through measurable

outcomes.

Experience & Background

5+ years of experience in project management, operations, or a similar

execution-driven role.

Demonstrated exposure to sales and marketing environments and successful project

execution (campaigns, brand initiatives, lead generation, community activations, or

digital marketing projects).

Proven track record of managing multiple initiatives simultaneously and delivering within

deadlines and budget.

Strong experience working cross-functionally with leadership, sales, marketing, and

operations teams.

Tertiary qualification in Business Management, Marketing, or Project Management

preferred (or equivalent practical experience).

Ideal Profile

A dynamic, commercially minded operator who thrives on getting things done — someone

who understands both the creative and analytical sides of business. They enjoy planning,

coordinating, and ensuring that people, processes, and projects move efficiently from idea to

impact.
