WHAT DO I DO FOR A LIVING?

A Project Manager is a motivated and effective leader who is accountable for the success or failure of a project. Project Managers are multitaskers, have great time management and organisation skills, are fantastic communicators and are trusted and reliable. They do not carry out all the work themselves but have project teams that work under them and make sure all the objectives of the project are carried out. However, if there are things that veer off track or are mismanaged, the Project Manager is always ultimately accountable. A Project Manager is responsible for planning, executing and closing projects. This includes defining the project, building its comprehensive workplan and managing the budget.
