Project Co Ordinator

Consula is recruiting on behalf of a growing Manchester business for a Project Coordinator to join their expanding delivery team. Our client has won a string of new contracts across the North West and needs a reliable, organised coordinator to keep their projects running smoothly behind the scenes.

This is a company on the up, and the project team is right at the centre of that growth. You will be trusted with real responsibility from the start, supporting Project Managers who value people who take ownership and get things done.

This opportunity would suit a detail-focused coordinator who enjoys variety and wants to grow with a business that is going places.

Location: Manchester

Salary: £42,500 – £45,000 per year

Employment: Permanent

The Role

• Providing day-to-day coordination support across a portfolio of live projects.

• Keeping project plans, timelines, risk logs and action trackers accurate and current.

• Arranging and minuting project meetings, reviews and client check-ins.

• Monitoring project spend, raising purchase orders and reconciling invoices.

• Acting as the link between delivery teams, suppliers and customers.

• Preparing weekly status reports and highlight dashboards for senior management.

• Maintaining the project document library and ensuring standards are met.

• Identifying slipping actions and escalating them before they become problems.

A Typical Day

No two days are identical, but most begin with a check of the action tracker and a catch-up with the Project Managers on priorities. You might spend the morning reconciling invoices against the budget and chasing a supplier for a delivery date, then turn to preparing the board pack for Friday's review. The afternoon could involve coordinating a client call, updating the risk register and making sure next week's workshops are booked and briefed. You are the glue that holds the project team together, and the day ends with every plan and log up to date. It suits someone who likes a busy, varied workload and takes satisfaction from keeping everything in order.

About You

• Previous experience in project coordination, administration or a PMO environment.

• Strong organisational skills with a sharp eye for detail.

• Clear, confident communication skills, both written and verbal.

• Good working knowledge of Excel and project collaboration tools.

• An interest in developing towards a project management career.

• A proactive, solutions-focused attitude.

What You Can Expect

• A salary of £42,500 – £45,000 per year.

• 28 days' annual leave including bank holidays.

• A clear development path towards project management.

• A friendly, supportive team in a growing Manchester business.

• Varied, interesting work across a range of projects and clients.
