Our client is looking for Project Coordinator, who provides mid-level coordination support for the planning and delivery of product development projects. The role partners with Project Leads/Managers to maintain project governance, plans, schedules, risks/issues, actions and documentation, and to keep stakeholders aligned through clear reporting and communication. The Project Coordinator proactively identifies gaps, supports problem-solving, and helps drive on-time delivery through strong follow-up and disciplined project control. Responsibilities: Own and maintain core project control artefacts (integrated schedule, milestones, actions, decisions, RAID and dependency logs) and ensure they are current. Coordinate and facilitate project governance (weekly/fortnightly status, steering/gateway readiness where applicable), including agendas, packs, minutes and follow-up. Drive the project reporting cadence: collect updates, challenge gaps/inconsistencies, prepare status reports/dashboards, and communicate key changes to stakeholders. Support scope, change and baseline management by logging change requests, tracking impacts (schedule/cost/risk) and coordinating approvals with the Project Lead/Manager. Coordinate cross-functional delivery activities (workshops, design reviews, testing/validation readiness, release/launch readiness) and track completion of agreed outputs. Support basic project financial administration (e.g., purchase requests/orders, invoice tracking, simple budget/spend trackers) in line with finance policy and project needs. Coordinate external parties as required (suppliers, contractors, labs/test houses) for meetings, deliverables and timelines, escalating constraints early. Maintain project documentation and document control (templates, stage-gate/gateway packs, decisions and approvals) and drive continuous improvement of ways of working. Identify risks, delays and resource constraints early; propose options and escalate with clear recommendations to the Project Lead/Manager. Skills: Experience in project coordination/project controls (typically 3–5 years), ideally within product development, engineering or manufacturing environments. Working knowledge of project delivery frameworks and governance (e.g., stage-gate/gateway, waterfall and/or agile) including maintaining project artefacts and reporting cadence. Demonstrated capability in schedule and milestone management, dependency tracking, and maintaining RAID, decision and action registers. Strong facilitation and stakeholder management skills (workshops, design reviews, governance meetings), including professional minute taking and action follow-up. Proficient in Microsoft Office / Microsoft 365, including advanced Excel skills and strong working knowledge of Microsoft Teams and Microsoft Project for maintaining schedules and tracking progress. Experience supporting basic project financial administration (purchase orders/requests, invoice tracking, simple budget/spend tracking) (desirable).
