About this Project Coordinator (construction/commercial fit out) role at Universal Business Team

Universal Business Team · Onsite · Oadby, England, United Kingdom

Project Coordinator

Location: Leicester (LE2)
Salary: £40,000 - £45,000 per annum (Negotiable for the right candidate)
Job Type: Full-Time | Permanent

Bring Structure to Exceptional Projects

Are you a highly organised Project Coordinator who thrives in a fast-paced environment? Do you enjoy juggling multiple priorities, building strong relationships, and making sure every detail is delivered flawlessly?

If so, this could be the opportunity you've been looking for.

We are working with a well-established and growing specialist business delivering high-quality projects across the UK. Known for craftsmanship, attention to detail, and exceptional customer service, working on a diverse range of commercial, retail, hospitality, residential, and luxury developments.

As business continues to grow, we're looking for an ambitious Project Coordinator to join the team and play a key role in delivering projects successfully from concept through to completion.

The Opportunity

This is far more than an administration role.

You'll become the central hub of projects, coordinating materials, suppliers, production schedules, logistics, installers, and client communications to keep projects moving forward.

Working alongside a young, progressive, and supportive team, you'll have genuine ownership, autonomy, and the opportunity to make a real impact on the success of the business.

No two days are the same. One morning you could be coordinating material procurement, and by the afternoon you'll be organising installations, resolving supplier challenges, and keeping clients informed on project progress.

What You'll Be Doing

As Project Coordinator, you'll take ownership of multiple live projects from sales handover through to successful installation. You'll work closely with clients, suppliers, architects, subcontractors, and internal teams to ensure projects are delivered on time, within budget, and to the highest standards.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Coordinating multiple projects simultaneously from start to finish
  • Managing project schedules, priorities, and deadlines
  • Liaising with clients, suppliers, architects, and subcontractors
  • Managing procurement, purchase orders, and material deliveries
  • Coordinating production schedules, logistics, and installations
  • Supporting project costing, invoicing, and budget tracking
  • Maintaining accurate project records and reporting
  • Proactively identifying and resolving issues before they impact delivery

This is a hands-on role where you'll be trusted to take ownership, keep projects moving, and ensure an exceptional experience for every client.

Requirements

We're interested in people who naturally take ownership and get things done.

You'll likely have experience in project coordination, operations, scheduling, procurement, logistics, construction, interiors, manufacturing, or a similar fast-moving environment.

You'll stand out if you:

  • Have experience managing multiple projects simultaneously
  • Are highly organised with exceptional attention to detail
  • Enjoy coordinating people and driving actions to completion
  • Communicate confidently and professionally with clients and suppliers
  • Stay calm under pressure and can prioritise effectively
  • Are proactive, resourceful, and solutions-focused
  • Enjoy improving processes and finding better ways of working

Desirable Experience

  • Construction, interiors, fit-out, joinery, manufacturing, or related sectors
  • Procurement and supplier management
  • Logistics, scheduling, or production planning
  • Experience using project management software such as Asana or similar platforms

Benefits

You'll be joining a successful family-owned business that combines traditional values with a modern, forward-thinking approach. They are pride on delivering outstanding customer service and creating an environment where motivated people can genuinely make a difference.

What We Offer

  • £40,000 - £45,000 per annum (Negotiable for the right candidate)
  • Full-time permanent position
  • Company pension
  • Free on-site parking
  • Staff canteen facilities
  • Supportive and collaborative team culture
  • Genuine opportunity to grow with an expanding business
  • Varied and rewarding projects across the UK

Ready for Your Next Challenge?

If you're an organised, proactive professional who enjoys coordinating people, projects, and processes to deliver exceptional results, we'd love to hear from you.

We are reviewing applications as they are received and are keen to appoint the right person quickly.
