Our project management team's mission is to ensure that every project runs smoothly, from start to finish. The man who does that every day is Sanel Kovačević. This week we were lucky enough to get 15 minutes out of his busy schedule to learn a little more about him and the role he plays.

Thank you for taking the time out of your busy client work! To start, tell us a little more about what the project management team does at GRM?
The information is truly in the title! The role of the project management team is to manage our projects from start to finish, ensuring that everything runs smoothly for clients.

Basically, we are the bridge between the client and the GRM shareholder database team, ensuring proper communication, resource control, and notification of every step taken. We work on all projects that come up, be it website development and design , SEO optimization, 24/7 web hosting and support , or any other digital marketing service .

Going back a few years, how did you initially enter the world of web design and digital marketing?
After graduating from IT faculty and earning the title of "Information Technology Engineer", I wanted to gain some work experience in the IT sector. Like many IT graduates from my university, the first call is a role in the quality assurance (QA) department - testing code when projects for clients are completed. Not long after that, I was lucky enough to receive an offer for a project manager position that was open at GRM at the time, and I gladly accepted it. And I'm still here!

So, you originally started as a QA, can you tell us how your role evolved to become a project manager?
It's not as strange as you might think, as both roles are closely tied to clients and overcoming their challenges. The quality assurance position taught me the basics of web development and digital marketing, along with the accountability needed to ensure a project meets agreed-upon expectations. That experience led me to project management.
