Nearshore Project Manager for SEO Agencies in Latin America

What the seat owns.

SEO project management has long feedback loops: audits, content, technical fixes, link work, reporting, and client approvals. The professional needs to keep movement visible before the client asks.

Owns delivery rhythm across audits, content plans, technical tickets, reporting, and approvals.
Turns SEO workstreams into owners, dates, blockers, and client-visible status.
Uses US working-hour overlap to resolve blockers before monthly reporting becomes cleanup.

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. Long feedback loops reward patience, and the people who have it do not churn through jobs.

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 delayed content plan, an unresolved technical ticket, and a client asking what actually moved this month.
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.

Is it the right hire?

A good fit when

Your SEO delivery slips because content, tech, and reporting owners drift apart.
Clients need clearer status before monthly reports.
You need project ownership with SEO context, not generic task movement.

Not the right fit when

You need an SEO strategist only.
The role has no client-visible status responsibility.
You only need task-board cleanup.

“For one role, we ended up hiring the very first candidate that we were introduced to, and we absolutely love her. I was very impressed with the speed and quality.”
