Keeps an outside team on scope and schedule. The person who did this left, and the company would rather bring in an experienced part-timer than rush a permanent hire. It works in travel and hospitality, where demand is seasonal. The work is fully remote, but the company can only contract people who live in Illinois, so this one is for residents there. Evenings or weekends are fine, as long as the agreed weekly output is there. About 2 hours a week should overlap with the team's day (CT). ## What you deliver - Manage an agency building a website, run weekly reviews and track change requests. - Work logged against the agreed list, so the company contact can see progress without a call - Questions collected in one thread, answered within one working day - A short handover note when the engagement pauses or ends ## What a week looks like - Daily: one hour at a time that suits you, inside the agreed window - Thursday: ten-minute sync if anything is blocked - Wednesday: weekly summary posted to the shared thread **Duration:** 8 weeks, renewable. Accepted after the walkthrough. Edits requested within three working days are part of the price. ## Tools Jira Slack ## Who fits - 5-10 years of hands-on work as a Project Manager, or the equivalent mix of roles - Comfortable working in Jira and Slack - Your own work history stays private; the company sees a first name, your field and a rate ### Nice to have - A habit of asking one clarifying question early rather than five late - Has worked with a distributed team across time zones ## Not included - Work outside the scope written in the brief; extra items are quoted separately - On-call availability outside the agreed window - Managing other contractors or employees ## How you get paid - The company prepays Deftridge before your first hour, so payment does not depend on a late invoice. - Deftridge pays you in USD after the company confirms the hours or the deliverable.
