Build the future of a growing digital group.
At Chora, we are building a group of companies focused on digital transformation, AI, software development, marketing and business consulting.
We are looking for a Freelance Operations & Project Manager to support the delivery of client projects and contribute to the development of the group's operational structure.
The collaboration will be established on a professional, independent basis. This is not an employment relationship: the selected professional will retain autonomy in organising their work while coordinating with the relevant teams, project owners and deadlines.
Your role
You will collaborate directly with the CEO, project owners and the management team, supporting both client delivery and selected internal initiatives across the group.
Your activities may include:
- Managing client and internal projects from planning through delivery.
- Coordinating timelines, priorities, deliverables and project stakeholders.
- Facilitating collaboration between internal teams, clients, suppliers and specialist partners.
- Monitoring project progress, identifying risks and proposing corrective actions.
- Supporting the preparation of project plans, reports, documentation and operating frameworks.
- Improving workflows and contributing to the definition of repeatable delivery processes.
- Taking ownership of agreed projects and initiatives, managing them autonomously against defined objectives.
- Helping management translate business priorities into concrete execution plans.
The initial focus will be strongly project-oriented. Depending on the results of the collaboration and the group's evolution, the scope may progressively expand to encompass broader operational responsibilities.
What we're looking for
We are looking for an experienced independent professional with a strong background in project management, delivery or business operations.
You may currently work as a freelancer, consultant or independent contractor and have experience in one or more of the following areas:
- Project Management
- Digital or creative agency delivery
- Software or technology projects
- Business Operations
- PMO
- Consulting
- Client and supplier coordination
More than a specific title, we are looking for someone who combines structured project management with a practical, hands-on approach.
You take ownership of agreed outcomes, organise your work autonomously and do not require detailed instructions for every activity.
You will thrive if you...
- enjoy organising complex activities;
- can manage multiple projects simultaneously;
- communicate effectively with different stakeholders;
- stay calm under pressure;
- are comfortable making decisions with incomplete information;
- naturally identify opportunities for improvement;
- like building systems instead of simply following them;
- are curious about AI and modern productivity tools.
Before you apply
This is a hands-on professional assignment, not an advisory-only position.
We are looking for someone who can personally manage projects, coordinate stakeholders and produce concrete deliverables, not only recommend how others should work.
At the same time, this is not an employment role. The selected professional must be comfortable operating independently, organising their own work and being accountable for agreed outcomes.
If you are looking for a highly structured organisation where every process is already defined, this collaboration is probably not the right fit.
If you enjoy taking ownership, bringing order to complexity and helping build better ways of working, we would be interested in hearing from you.
