About the role
This is far more than an administration role. You'll become the central hub of projects, coordinating materials, suppliers, production schedules, logistics, installers, and client communications to keep projects moving forward. Working alongside a young, progressive, and supportive team, you'll have genuine ownership, autonomy, and the opportunity to make a real impact on the success of the business. No two days are the same. One morning you could be coordinating material procurement, and by the afternoon you'll be organising installations, resolving supplier challenges, and keeping clients informed on project progress.
Responsibilities
- Key responsibilities include:
- Coordinating multiple projects simultaneously from start to finish
- Managing project schedules, priorities, and deadlines
- Liaising with clients, suppliers, architects, and subcontractors
- Managing procurement, purchase orders, and material deliveries
- Coordinating production schedules, logistics, and installations
- Supporting project costing, invoicing, and budget tracking
- Maintaining accurate project records and reporting
- Proactively identifying and resolving issues before they impact delivery
- This is a hands-on role where you'll be trusted to take ownership, keep projects moving, and ensure an exceptional experience for every client.
Requirements
- We're interested in people who naturally take ownership and get things done.
- You'll likely have experience in project coordination, operations, scheduling, procurement, logistics, construction, interiors, manufacturing, or a similar fast-moving environment.
- You'll stand out if you:
- Have experience managing multiple projects simultaneously
- Are highly organised with exceptional attention to detail
- Enjoy coordinating people and driving actions to completion
- Communicate confidently and professionally with clients and suppliers
- Stay calm under pressure and can prioritise effectively
- Are proactive, resourceful, and solutions-focused
- Enjoy improving processes and finding better ways of working
- Desirable Experience
- Construction, interiors, fit-out, joinery, manufacturing, or related sectors
- Procurement and supplier management
- Logistics, scheduling, or production planning
- Experience using project management software such as Asana or similar platforms
