Construction Project Coordinator — Luxury Retail Fit

CONSTRUCTION PROJECT COORDINATOR - LUXURY RETAIL

ML Projects is hiring a Project Coordinator to support the delivery of luxury fashion retail fit‑outs across the UK and Europe. You’ll work alongside our Project Managers, helping move projects through tender, procurement, site delivery, and handover, taking design information from our internal team and keeping it on track as it lands on site.

Project values range from £350,000 to £2M+. Our PMs run several concurrent fit‑outs at any one time, each with tight programmes, demanding landlord and centre management requirements, and clients who expect flagship‑standard execution. Your job is to give those PMs the bandwidth and reliable information they need to deliver — tracking actions, chasing responses, maintaining trackers and registers, and keeping site, design, and client conversations joined up.

This role is pitched at someone who has spent a year or two on active fit‑out sites or in a contractor's PM team. You should already know how a site really runs: how RFIs get answered (or don't), what a valuation looks like, how snags get closed out, and why programmes slip.
