Job Title: Project Manager

Location: Nigeria
Reports to: CEO & CTO | Leads cross-functional execution across Atinudah

About the Role

• We are seeking a mission-driven, detail-oriented, and results-driven Project Manager to oversee execution across the Atinudah ecosystem.
• This person will serve as the operational heartbeat of the company, driving projects forward, coordinating across teams, resolving blockers, and ensuring that execution consistently aligns with the vision.
• This is not a role for someone who needs to be told what to do. You’ll have full visibility across projects, teams, timelines, and budgets, and are expected to take charge, keep leadership informed, and build systems that scale.
• You’ll work closely with the CEO and CTO and play a key role in shaping how Atinudah delivers across its business.

Key Responsibilities
Cross-Functional Project Execution:

• Lead and coordinate execution across all Atinudah teams, ensuring projects run on time, on budget, and at the highest standard
• Build and manage integrated project plans, track progress, identify risks, and hold teams accountable to KPIs.
• Work with team leads (events, design, content, marketing) to ensure seamless handoffs, optimized processes, and aligned deliverables.
• Develop and maintain structured reporting for leadership, flagging risks early and recommending solutions proactively and executing them.

Operational Ownership:

• Build internal systems and SOPs to ensure team accountability, reduce friction, and scale output.
• Streamline workflows across creative production, client service, events, and campaigns.
• Be the person who “owns the how” — how ideas become action, how teams collaborate, and how execution improves over time.

Leadership Communication & Feedback:

• Serve as a daily bridge between leadership and teams, translating big-picture direction into tactical execution.
• Flag problems early and offer options, not just issues, and solve.
• Ensure recurring team check-ins, retrospectives, and progress updates are structured, documented, and followed through.

Client & Stakeholder Management:

• Track project status across clients and ensure timely delivery and quality control.
• Collaborate with all Atinudah teams to make sure projects meet timelines and deliverables.
• Monitor how the company shows up to clients and external partners, and step in when needed to tighten delivery.
• Continuously assess Atinudah’s vendor and partner ecosystem to identify opportunities for greater efficiency and cost savings. Provide strategic recommendations on optimal engagement models, including Joint Business Plans (JBPs), Service-Level Agreements (SLAs), or hybrid approaches, to improve performance, streamline processes, and reduce operational costs.

Data, Reporting & Financial Oversight:

• Use Excel and related tools to track project budgets, spending, and team performance.
• Build dashboards that track throughput, velocity, and cost-efficiency.
• Share weekly reports and data-driven recommendations with leadership on what’s working and what’s not.

People & Team Management:

• Lead and motivate cross-functional teams, ensuring clarity of roles, responsibilities, and deadlines.
• Resolve conflicts and foster a culture of collaboration, accountability, and excellence.
• Support performance tracking, providing feedback loops and recommendations to leadership.

Who You Are

• A self-starter and builder. You don’t wait to be told what to do, you see the big picture, spot gaps, and take ownership.
• A systems thinker. You can take chaos and turn it into clarity. You know how to build templates, SOPs, dashboards, and timelines that work.
• A people organizer. You’re not afraid to hold people accountable, follow up firmly, or reset expectations.
• A calm executor. You’re comfortable with tight timelines, ambitious ideas, and changing priorities, and know how to stay focused and composed.

Requirements

• 4+ years of experience in project management, operations, or program coordination, ideally across media, finance, FMCG, agency, events, or production environments.
• Demonstrated experience working across multiple departments and managing end-to-end project lifecycles.
• Strong proficiency in Excel (pivot tables, lookups, formulas) and comfort working with dashboards and financial data.
• Experience using PM tools like Trello, Notion, Asana, or ClickUp.
• Excellent verbal and written communication - you write clearly, follow up smartly, and communicate with intention.
• PMP Certification or other professional PM qualification is a strong plus.
• Experience overseeing creative or campaign teams is an added advantage.

What You’ll Get

• A front-row seat to build operational systems and execution culture for a rapidly scaling company.
• Direct access to executive leadership and the opportunity to influence top-level decisions.
• Exposure to projects across branding, content, events, and creative economy infrastructure.
• The chance to work in a team that cares about culture, craft, and creative impact.
• A high-growth role with autonomy, ownership, and real visibility.
