Project Coordinator

Project Coordinators are a critical member of the project team, keeping everyone focused on their targets, deadlines, and budget constraints. They are often the central contact point for different work groups and contractors (eg, builders, sub-contractors, telecommunications engineers).

As a Project Coordinator you could be creating (and issuing) a schedule for a work team, tracking project expenses in a spreadsheet, ordering basic supplies, resolving a scheduling conflict between contractors, or reporting progress to the project manager.
