Product/Project Manager B2B

Hey, I want to invite you to our team of delivery-oriented professionals!

The Paralect team is more than 100 high-class specialists who work on projects in the following domains: FinTech, Insurance, HealthCare, Marketing. We're focused on Technology, Design and User Experience and our greatest delight is creating tools that feel like art.

To apply this vacancy you have to prepare video self presentation.

☝ Important note: Product Manager at Paralect is a kind of combination of Project Manager + Business Analyst. It means that you're responsible for the overall product success and delivery. It includes: requirements & backlog management, team & stakeholders management, market research, and product delivery.

Proficiency in English at a B2+ level is an essential requirement for this role. We kindly ask you to apply only if you meet this criterion.

By experience, we understood it's the best combination of skills for a leader for our products. And it works more effectively if one person is responsible for all these tasks so there's less extra communication (of course, it works well for small projects, up to 5-7 people).

So only if there's a match here with what you want to do, I kindly invite you to continue reading
