About The Position

The Project Coordinator serves as the central operational hub for project intake, release readiness, process standardization, and training alignment across the department. Reporting directly to the Director, PMO, Training & Tech Adoption, this role acts as a process and pipeline owner rather than a tactical administrative assistant—driving quality control, documentation compliance, and cross-project operational handoffs. Designed as an accelerated early-career launchpad, this role offers structured mentorship in Change Management and Business Analysis for an aspiring project or operations leader.

Requirements

1–3 years in project support, operations, or coordination
High proficiency in Google Workspace (Docs, Sheets, Slides, Forms, Drive)

Exceptional organizational skills with a strong focus on process compliance and documentation completeness.
Assertive, professional style capable of enforcing process gates and deadlines with Project Managers and senior peers.
Strong eagerness to build expertise in Organizational Behavior, Change Management, and project delivery frameworks.
