Project Support Coordinator

The purpose of the position is to help our technical specialists remain organised and in control of project information, deadlines, document requests and outstanding actions across a busy workload.

The role will involve:

• Maintaining project trackers, registers and accurate records
• Monitoring actions, deadlines and document requests
• Sending forms, template packs and information requests
• Following up clients, consultants and project teams by email and telephone
• Chasing missing or overdue information
• Collating documents and supporting the preparation of submissions
• Identifying and escalating blockers, delays and repeated non-response
• Providing wider project administration and coordination support to the technical teams

This is an important coordination role, but it is not a technical Principal Designer position. The successful person will not be expected to make professional compliance decisions, provide technical sign-off or undertake Principal Designer duties.

You do not need to already be a Building Safety Act or CDM expert. Training can be provided for the technical context. We are particularly interested in colleagues who can demonstrate:

• Strong organisation and attention to detail
• Confidence communicating by email and telephone
• The persistence to follow up outstanding information professionally
• The ability to manage competing priorities
• Sound judgement about when a delay, missing document or lack of response needs escalating
• An interest in developing their knowledge of Building Safety, CDM and construction compliance

Salary: £28,000–£35,000, dependent on relevant experience and qualifications. There may be flexibility for someone bringing particularly strong or directly relevant experience.
