Project Manager · Cape Town [Visit Profile](/candidates/roo1458/) Companies use RooCruit to find experienced Marketing Project Managers to help them run campaigns, coordinate teams, and keep marketing activity on track, whilst saving up to **50% on salaries** when compared to hiring locally in the UK or US. We have recorded video interviews with a library of marketing professionals in South Africa who are looking for part-time and full-time remote work opportunities from **£17 – $23 per hour**. ## What a Marketing Project Manager does A Marketing Project Manager is the person who makes sure your marketing actually gets done. They sit at the centre of your campaigns, coordinating the moving parts that marketing teams constantly underestimate: briefing designers, chasing approvals, managing deadlines, keeping agencies accountable, and making sure nothing falls through the cracks between strategy and execution. Where businesses often struggle without this role is in the compounding cost of disorganisation. When your marketing lead is also the project coordinator, the copywriter is fielding amends directly from the MD, and your agency is waiting two weeks for a sign-off, output slows and quality suffers. A dedicated Marketing PM creates structure around all of it. They manage the briefs, the timelines, the feedback loops, and the reporting, freeing up the rest of your team to focus on the work they're actually good at. ## Hire a Marketing Project Manager dedicated to your business If you hire a Marketing Project Manager full-time with RooCruit they will work for you and no one else. There are no shared accounts, no competing priorities, and no agency account manager splitting their attention across a dozen clients. Just one person, focused entirely on your marketing, operating without the cost and commitment of a direct hire. Most of our clients find it works best when they bring their specialist fully into the fold; company email, team calls, project tools. The people they work with day-to-day quickly forget they're not on the payroll. ## How RooCruit can help you find a Marketing Project Manager fast Hiring a Marketing Project Manager is as much about fit as it is about experience. This is someone who will be communicating with your team daily, managing external agencies, and keeping multiple stakeholders aligned, so how they come across matters as much as what their CV says. That's why every candidate in our library has completed a recorded video interview before you see them. You get a real sense of how they communicate, whether their style suits your culture, and how they'd likely come across to your agencies and colleagues. It's a much better signal than a CV alone, and it means you're only getting on calls with people who already feel like a genuine possibility. Book a call with our team, share your brief, and we'll match you with three suitable candidates within 48 hours. If the first batch doesn't feel right, we go back and find better ones. And if the right person isn't already in our library, we'll run a custom search at no extra cost. [Book a call](/book-a-call) ## Tasks our Marketing Project Managers assist clients with ### Campaign planning and timelines Your Marketing PM will have proven experience building and managing end-to-end campaign plans across multiple channels, keeping activity on schedule and stakeholders aligned from kick-off to launch. ### Brief writing and asset coordination Candidates will be skilled at translating marketing objectives into clear creative and copy briefs, managing the flow of assets between internal teams, freelancers, and agencies so nothing gets stuck in an inbox. ### Agency and freelancer management Your specialist will have a solid track record working with external partners, ensuring deliverables land on time, feedback is consolidated, and day-to-day communication stays efficient without pulling senior team members into the detail. ### Reporting and performance tracking From weekly dashboards through to monthly performance reviews, your Marketing PM will consolidate reporting across channels and present results in a format that drives clear decisions, not just data. ## Why choose a Marketing Project Manager in South Africa Marketing project management is a role that lives or dies on communication. Briefing clearly, pushing back diplomatically, escalating when needed, and keeping ten different stakeholders moving in the same direction all depend on confident, fluent English. South Africa produces professionals for whom English is a first language, which is why they integrate naturally into UK and US marketing teams in a way that candidates from more traditional outsourcing destinations often don't. Beyond language, the talent pool has real depth. You'll find candidates who have managed marketing operations for UK e-commerce brands, coordinated campaigns across multiple agencies for SaaS companies targeting the US market, and supported marketing directors in sectors like financial services, property, and professional services. They understand brand governance, agency relationships, and the pace of a performance-driven marketing team. ### Native English First-language fluency for UK and US teams ### GMT+2 timezone Full overlap with UK, comfortable with US East ### Sector depth E-commerce, SaaS, financial and professional services ## Pricing for Marketing Project Managers Marketing project management is a role where part-time can be genuinely transformative. Campaign coordination, asset management, and reporting don't require someone to be permanently at their desk. A focused block of hours each day is often all it takes to bring meaningful structure to a marketing function that's been running on goodwill and spreadsheets. Part-time ### 4 hours per day 80 hours per month £1,700 / $2,250 per month Equivalent to **£21 / $28 per hour** Full-time ### Full hours 160 hours per month £2,700 / $3,750 per month Equivalent to **£17 / $23 per hour** Marketing Project Managers are available from 4 to 8 hours per day.
