Hire a nearshore project manager for paid ads agencies in Latin America.
Vela headhunts nearshore project managers who already have the job, in Medellín, Bogotá, Buenos Aires and Mexico City. AI-ready, vetted on a live working interview, introduced three at a time.
What the seat owns.
Paid ads project management moves fast: launches, creative tests, tracking issues, budget pacing, and client reporting all create same-week pressure.
- Owns delivery rhythm across launch checklists, creative tests, tracking fixes, reporting, and client-visible status.
- Turns spend movement, blockers, and task ownership into clear next actions.
- Uses US working-hour overlap to keep launches and client updates from drifting.
How we find and vet them.
Every search starts with the project managers who are in the seat right now, in Medellín, Bogotá, Buenos Aires, and Mexico City. Launch weeks expose who can hold a plan together, and the answer is usually one person the agency guards.
- We reach them by warm intro, prior-network referral, and a researched personal email. Never a job post, never a recruiter blast.
- A live working call around a campaign launch blocked by missing creative, tracking questions, and a client expecting the next performance update.
- A written screen for client-ready clarity: facts, owners, dates, and the next action.
- Reference checks with the people who actually managed them, run the same way we check references for our own team.
- They already use AI in the work they do every day. We check it on the working interview; it is not an add-on to the fee.
