Project Coordinator

A savvy, organised Project Coordinator is needed for a permanent role with a vibrant, busy ERP software consulting firm. You will have experience as a Project Coordinator or Junior Project Manager assisting on small to mid-size projects involving application software, and will be used to juggling a lot of balls at once. The job can be home based but you will probably go into the office once a week, so ideally you live within 1.5 hours of the Aylesbury area. There could be some travel throughout the UK in future, but most of the work is remote now. Starting salary from £30 - £40k + £4k car allowance.

You need experience of project coordinating application software implementation projects that have involved things like data conversion, software installation & implementation, client training sessions and go-live, and you understand the business processes. You will have a lot of remote engagement with your clients, so your communication skills should be superb; you enjoy interacting with people and you understand the right level of service to provide to each customer, and how to look at the profitability of each project.

You will work for the Senior PM, and 3 other Project Managers. You will be allocated to specific projects and specific clients and may well be working on multiple projects concurrently.

So you will be chasing clients and pushing things through with them, organising project plans and the software consultants and keeping everyone on track. You need a calm personality, excellent organisation and lots of drive to do all of this well. You are brilliant at planning, scheduling, organising and keeping projects on track. You will be working on projects involving a .Net SQL Server ERP solution which is sold in the cloud, on premise and for mobile. The product is selling incredibly well, clients love it and they expect their project management team to grow dramatically, so career prospects are excellent.

You will be used to managing diaries, organising meetings, allocating consultants, running logs, and dealing with everything that changes at the last minute. You will be able to smoothly chase up clients to arrange meetings, or training sessions or follow up with documentation.

This is a superb business, they have grown from 25 people to 160 in 10 years, and they are multiple award winners for their software solutions, and also as a top UK Company to work for. Your career will go from strength to strength here.

This role would suit a Project Coordinator looking for a step up, someone who enjoys working in a team and is happy having a "to do list" as long as next week and lots of things happening at once. You ensure the right level of service and you can hold your own when dealing with project disruption / change management and the clients' pain points.
