Braun Management works with executive teams to solve organizational problems that have become too internal to fix. We provide rigorous analysis and evidence-backed conclusions to help leadership teams navigate complex governance and structural friction.
The Role
This Junior Project Manager position is created to support a specific engagement where our partner is a South African financial institution.

- High attention to detail when reviewing complex project plans or large sets of organizational data.

How We Work
Braun Management operates as a fully remote team, prioritizing deep work and thoughtful communication over constant meetings. We rely on clear, written documentation to keep everyone aligned, which allows our team members to work from wherever they are most productive. This structure requires a high degree of individual accountability and a preference for asynchronous collaboration. By removing the distractions of a traditional office, we give ourselves the space to tackle the difficult, unglamorous work that our clients require.
What We Offer

- A competitive salary that is attractive for an entry-level professional in the current market.
- A fully remote work environment, giving you the flexibility to manage your own workspace.
