Senior Project Coordinator

$68,000 – $72,000 per year
Monday to Friday | 8:30 AM – 5:00 PM
Full-time | Metairie, LA

We’re looking for an experienced Senior Project Coordinator to join our Metairie team and help keep a busy mix of client and internal projects moving.

This is a step up from a purely administrative coordinator role. You’ll have your own areas of responsibility, work directly with Project Managers and department leads, and be expected to know where projects stand without needing to be chased for updates.

Day to day

You could be coordinating a supplier in the morning, updating a project schedule before lunch and spending the afternoon getting outstanding approvals or costs tied down.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Maintaining project schedules and deadlines
• Coordinating suppliers, meetings and project resources
• Following up on outstanding actions and approvals
• Tracking costs, invoices and purchase orders
• Preparing progress updates and project documentation
• Keeping internal teams and clients informed
• Flagging delays, conflicts or changes early
• Maintaining accurate project files
• Supporting projects from initial planning through to completion
• Taking ownership of smaller projects when required

The person we need

• You’ll probably have 3+ years of project coordination experience and be used to having several pieces of work moving at once.
• Strong Excel and Microsoft Office skills are important, along with experience using project management software such as Monday.com, Asana, Smartsheet or similar.
• More importantly, you need to follow things through. If an approval is late, a supplier hasn’t responded or a deadline is starting to slip, you’ll pick it up and get things moving.

The normal week is 40 hours, Monday to Friday, with occasional client meetings or site visits depending on the projects underway.

Salary: $68,000 – $72,000 depending on experience.
