Hire an agency project manager in Latin America.

Vela headhunts currently-employed agency project managers in Latin America for US digital agencies, recruited the way we hire for our own team. The search is built for professionals already working inside agencies, not the active job-board pool.

The professional owns the parts that break retention.

Agency owners looking for one senior project owner between client promises, internal work, and weekly delivery pressure.

Own

Owns the workback plan from client promise to internal delivery.

Built for agency work, not generic remote hiring.

Digital agencies where project management is not just task movement. The professional has to understand retainers, client expectations, and channel constraints.

  • A working-call exercise around missed deadlines, unclear owners, and client pressure.
  • Tool fluency across ClickUp, Asana, Slack, Notion, Airtable, and spreadsheet reporting.
  • Agency-context check around scope, retainers, renewals, and handoff quality.
  • Project-risk summaries from tasks, transcripts, and client notes.
  • Client-ready weekly updates from raw internal movement.
  • SOP drafts that turn recurring delivery patterns into reusable operating rules.

Want the hire trained to run AI in the seat? We offer that as a separate, optional bootcamp — priced on its own, never bundled into the placement fee.

We say no more often than yes.

  • Delivery quality depends on handoffs that no one currently owns.
  • Clients need clearer timelines without the founder writing every update.
  • You need a professional who has already worked inside agency pressure.
  • You only need a junior task coordinator.
  • You want a temporary freelancer for one launch.
  • You are not ready to hand over real delivery ownership.
