Job Description

Join Cafeyn: Where Innovation Meets Inspiration
Cafeyn is more than a platform— it is transforming the way people access and experience content. Since 2006, we’ve grown in a fast-evolving market, adapting to become a leading digital reading service with over 2 million users worldwide. Cafeyn gives readers unlimited, personalized access to thousands of newspapers and magazines, curated to fit their tastes and delivered seamlessly across devices.

Our mission?
To empower individuals with access to trusted, high-quality content that fosters personal growth and discovery. Whether it's through the comprehensive collection of news and features on Cafeyn, the digital publishing solutions of Milibris, the fun and educative content for children on Kidjo, or the collections for manga lovers by Mangas.io, Cafeyn stands at the forefront of digital content experiences.

Your team & responsibilities

You will join the Content team. By integrating this team, you will help us following the acquisition of Readly to fully migrate our publishers.

Your missions

  • Own end-to-end project planning for the migration, including sequencing publishers by complexity, setting milestones, and maintaining a live tracker of progress across both Back Office and FTP workstreams

  • Serve as the primary point of contact during transition - communicating timelines, providing onboarding guidance for Telescope and Cafeyn FTP, and resolving queries or escalations without requiring internal teams to manage publisher relationships directly

  • Coordinate with both Cafeyn production teams to allocate migrated publishers equitably, ensuring capacity is managed proactively and neither team is overburdened at any point in the migration curve

  • Work alongside technical and operations stakeholders to identify and resolve file delivery issues, credential setup, and upload failures - with enough system literacy to diagnose problems before escalating

  • Track and report on migration progress weekly, flagging at-risk publishers, blockers, and any scope changes to senior stakeholders, with clear recommendations rather than status updates alone

This is a freelance full-time opportunity.

Who are we looking for?

You are at the right place if you have

  • Proven experience in end-to-end project management, ideally within migration, transformation, or implementation projects.

  • Strong planning, coordination, and project execution skills, with the ability to manage multiple workstreams simultaneously.

  • Demonstrated experience managing cross-functional stakeholders, including internal teams and external partners.

  • Solid understanding of technical environments, including FTP, Back Office systems, and data/file transfer processes.

  • Proficiency with project management and reporting tools.

  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to guide partners through onboarding and migration activities.

  • Ability to identify risks, troubleshoot issues, and drive resolution by coordinating with technical and operational teams.

  • Strong analytical mindset, excellent organizational skills, and the ability to prioritize effectively in a fast-paced environment.

  • Proactive, autonomous, and solution-oriented, with a continuous improvement mindset.

  • Fluency in English.
