Experienced Digital Project Manager with a focus on team efficiency.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Digital Project Manager with extensive experience in overseeing digital operations and managing cross-functional teams. My journey in project management began with a strong foundation in digital marketing, which I further enhanced through my education at WITS Business School and the University of Cape Town. I pride myself on my ability to foster collaboration and communication among team members, ensuring that projects are delivered on time and to the highest quality standards.
In my recent role at Mischka, I successfully led a web development team, optimizing workflows and addressing potential issues proactively. My responsibilities included developing timelines, managing budgets, and acting as a liaison between the digital team and account managers. I have a proven track record of managing multiple projects simultaneously while maintaining a keen eye for detail and a commitment to excellence.
My approach to project management is rooted in a sense of pride in the work we do. I believe in creating an environment where team members feel motivated and valued, which ultimately leads to successful project outcomes. I am always eager to learn and adapt, leveraging my skills in various project management tools and digital platforms to drive success.
