Construction Project Coordinator

Durban North, South Africa | Posted on 09/10/2026

Blupool builds and renovates swimming pools across the Durban area. We are looking for an organised, proactive Construction Project Coordinator to keep several live construction projects on track at the same time.

You will own the plan for each project: what happens next, what must be in place before it can happen, and who needs to know. You will coordinate our teams, vehicles, materials, suppliers and contractors, and make sure every site is ready before work is scheduled. When something threatens the programme, you will spot it early and escalation.

This is a coordination role. Technical decisions and technical sign-off stay with our experienced site supervisors and management, who you will work alongside every day.

• Keep project tasks, dates, dependencies, blockers and next actions current in Zoho Projects.
• Coordinate multiple active construction and renovation projects at once.
• Coordinate construction teams, supervisors, vehicles, materials, suppliers and contractors.
• Confirm each site is ready before work is scheduled.
• Prepare and communicate the next day's construction programme.
• Make sure materials, access, drawings, client selections, approvals and phase sign-offs are in place before work proceeds.
• Follow up suppliers and contractors proactively, especially where a delay could affect the programme.
• Update clients clearly and professionally on progress, upcoming work, delays, decisions needed and revised dates.
• Track client concerns and complaints through to resolution.
• Help prepare and check project budgets before they go for approval.
• Escalate missing approvals, delays, resource conflicts and other risks early.
• Keep accurate records, photographs, project documents and communication history.
• Work closely with site supervisors and management to keep projects moving to programme.

• Strong organisational and planning ability.
• Excellent follow-through and attention to detail.
• Clear written and verbal communication.
• Confidence dealing with clients, suppliers, contractors and staff.
• Ability to manage several live projects and competing priorities at once.
• The habit of identifying problems before they become delays.
• Strong computer literacy and willingness to work within structured systems.
• Discipline in keeping tasks, dates and outstanding actions up to date.
• Ability to work under pressure in a practical construction environment.
• A valid driver's licence (required).

Construction coordination, project coordination, logistics, operations coordination, site administration, or any role with many moving parts.

• Experience with Zoho Projects, Zoho Recruit or another project or task-management system.

Swimming-pool experience is not required. If you coordinate well, we will teach you how pools are built.

Remuneration: R10 000 – R14 000 per month, depending on experience.
