Why this seat is hard to fill.

Companies where the project manager has to hold tasks, people, clients, and reporting in one operating rhythm.

How we reach them.

  • Every search starts with the project managers who are in the seat right now, in Medellín, Bogotá, Buenos Aires, and Mexico City. The profiles you can find belong to the people whose last seat did not hold.
  • We reach them by warm intro, prior-network referral, and a researched personal email. Never a job post, never a recruiter blast.
  • Eight active searches a month, so the outreach stays personal enough that someone with a job reads it.

How we check them.

  • A project triage exercise using real tasks and real client pressure.
  • Written follow-up test for clear owner/date/action discipline.
  • Reference checks with the people who actually managed them, run the same way we check references for our own team.

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 we say yes.

  • You need a project manager with client context, not a task-board owner.
  • The seat affects retention, not just internal organization.
  • You want a narrow headhunt instead of sorting a broad job-board pool.
  • You need a general VA.
  • You want software-only project management.
  • You need a contractor for a single short sprint.

Choose by seat shape, not country stereotype.
