Project Coordinator – Mobilisation & Operations

Hybrid role

Salary: Up to £31,930 per annum, depending on experience

Are you highly organised, great at juggling multiple priorities and looking for a role where no two days are quite the same?

We’re looking for a Project Coordinator to join our Mobilisation & Projects team, providing hands-on coordination and administrative support across new site openings, operational projects and ongoing business activity.

This is a varied role combining project coordination, reporting, diary management and on-site mobilisation support. You’ll work closely with our Mobilisation Managers and operational teams, helping to keep projects organised, actions on track and our sites fully supported.

This isn't a purely desk-based role. Our mobilisations happen where our operations happen, so flexibility is important.

• You’ll be required to work from the office three days per week (Rubery, B45 9PZ)
• You must be comfortable travelling to sites and have access to a vehicle to support mobilisations and projects
• There will be occasional weekend working when required to support key mobilisation activity

What you’ll be doing

• Supporting new contract mobilisations, from pre-opening administration through to hands-on support on site
• Coordinating project actions involving various stakeholders and departments and providing updates
• Managing administration for our site information hub, including regular reporting
• Producing monthly operational reports covering areas such as allergens, wastage and stocktaking
• Managing diaries and schedules for the team
• Coordinating and tracking site visits, reports and follow-up actions
• Coordinating finance charges, sending welcome packs for new mobilisations and internal compliance levels
• Keeping project trackers, documentation and key information accurate and up to date
• Providing wider coordination support to the Mobilisation & Projects team as priorities develop

What we’re looking for

You’ll be someone who enjoys bringing structure to a busy environment and can confidently manage several workstreams at once.

You’ll have:

• Previous experience in a project coordination, mobilisation or operations support role
• Excellent organisation and attention to detail
• Strong communication skills and confidence working with different stakeholders
• Good Excel and general Microsoft Office skills
• The ability to manage deadlines and changing priorities
• A proactive approach, with the confidence to chase actions and keep activity moving
• Experience within catering, facilities management, hospitality or a multisite operational environment would be beneficial, but isn’t essential

Why join us?

This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to develop their career within projects and mobilisation. You’ll get exposure to projects from initial planning through to launch and post-mobilisation review, working alongside operational teams and gaining a real understanding of what it takes to successfully bring new sites into operation.
