A project manager oversees different initiatives or projects of a business, monitors their progress and completion, and ensures that they meet the expectations of the clients. Although a project manager usually doesn’t need to perform the hands-on tasks involved in a project, he or she must possess some degree of knowledge with regards to the various aspects of a project.

What does a project manager do?

The project manager is responsible for day-to-day management of the project and must be competent in managing the six aspects of a project, i.e. scope, schedule, finance, risk, quality and resources.

Project managers work on specific projects that have definite outcomes, have time limits and have to stay within a budget.

These tasks typically include

planning what work needs to be done, when and who’s going to do it;

making sure the work is done to the right standard;
