Associate Project Manager - Bogota 2026

Role Overview: The Project Management Associate (PMA) is an execution-focused role responsible for coordinating expert capacity, scheduling, and operational readiness across active projects.

This role serves as the primary operational interface between Project Managers and the Expert Network, ensuring that the right experts are assigned, available, compliant, and performing in line with defined quality and delivery expectations.

The PMA role is designed for individuals who excel at coordination, structured execution, and operational discipline, and who can reliably run defined workflows at scale.

Core Responsibilities

Expert Network Coordination

• Coordinate expert assignment, availability, and scheduling across active projects.
• Ensure experts are correctly matched to tasks based on skill requirements, availability, and project priorities.
• Act as the first point of contact for day-to-day expert execution questions and logistics.

Capacity & Scheduling Management

• Track expert capacity and utilization across projects.
• Flag capacity constraints, scheduling conflicts, or execution risks early to Project Managers.
• Support short-term rebalancing of expert workloads as project needs evolve.

Performance Tracking & Reporting

• Maintain accurate records of expert activity and delivery status.
• Escalate performance issues or recurring execution gaps to Project Managers.

SOP Documentation & Process Report

• Draft, document, and maintain SOPs related to expert coordination and execution workflows, based on existing delivery standards.
• Ensure SOPs are clearly documented, versioned, and accessible to relevant stakeholders.
• Execute workflows strictly in line with approved SOPs.
• Surface process gaps or ambiguities, proposing updates for review and approval by senior delivery roles.

Operational Hygiene

• Maintain clean, up-to-date trackers, schedules, and documentation.
• Support meeting logistics related to expert coordination (scheduling, notes, follow-ups).
• Ensure operational handoffs between teams are documented and traceable.
