I’ve been tasked with finding an experienced Project Manager for ‘a sensible cost’ - no specific budget amount shared.
That sounds like “we want the best, but want to pay very little” right?
It’s a massive project, they said “you developed this, did all the documentation and research, you can PM it right?”
“Can’t we just start making progress and adapt as we go?” They asked.
Sure I said (thinking Agile), but they said I just need to get on with it and let them know when finished! So no stakeholder interaction... this is not going to end well...

    Good * are hard to find. But that doesn't mean, that the project has to fail.
    If time isn't much of an essence, you can just iteratively improve it and add features as needed on a slow pace. Like treating as R&D.

    UPDATE: ‘They’ have listened and have started looking to recruit a PM :)
