About The Position

Purohit Navigation is looking for a Production and Administrative Coordinator to split time between two connected responsibilities: coordinating production of print, digital, and video materials, and providing day-to-day administrative support to designated leaders. On the production side, this role helps move projects from approved creative direction through production, proofing, quality review, final asset delivery, and organized file archiving. On the administrative side, this role manages calendars and keeps leaders' deliverables and schedules organized.

Proven ability to manage multiple deadlines accurately and on budget in a fast-paced environment.
Proficiency in Microsoft Office, including Outlook, PowerPoint, Excel, and Word.
