Project Coordinator (Part-time

Up to 22.5 hours per week (three days) | Home-based | £275 per day/£36.67 per hour

At Agenda, we help charities, NGOs and mission-driven organisations use strategic communications to create positive social change. Our clients work on some of the world's biggest challenges - from medical aid and climate change to health, housing and workers’ rights.

As our consultancy grows, we're looking for someone who loves bringing order to complexity.

This isn't a traditional admin role. It's an opportunity to become the operational heart of a growing consultancy, helping our projects run brilliantly while building smarter systems that make everyone's work easier.

If you're the sort of person who gets genuine satisfaction from colour-coded spreadsheets, beautifully organised information, smooth-running projects and finding better ways of doing things, we'd love to hear from you.

You'll work across every part of the business, supporting our directors and wider team to deliver exceptional work for clients.

One minute you'll be setting up a new client project, the next you'll be updating project plans, preparing workshop logistics, tracking budgets or improving one of our internal systems.

You'll quickly become the person everyone relies on because you always know what's happening across the business.

You'll also have the freedom to improve how we work. We don't just want someone to follow our processes – we want someone who enjoys making them better.

You’ll:

• Coordinate client projects from proposal through to completion
• Keep project plans, documentation and action trackers up to date
• Schedule client meetings and workshops
• Track budgets, project hours and invoices
• Help maintain an overview of every live project across the agency
• Spot risks and bottlenecks before they become problems
• Improve our internal systems, templates and ways of working
• Organise proposals, documents and knowledge so they're easy to find
• Support colleagues with day-to-day operations and administration
• Help us embrace AI and digital tools to work smarter

You're someone who enjoys making things run smoothly. You don't panic when there are lots of moving parts. Instead, you naturally create structure, prioritise what matters and make sure everything gets done.

You’ll probably recognise yourself in many of these:

• Exceptionally organised
• Calm under pressure
• Highly proactive
• Detail-oriented
• Curious about improving processes
• Comfortable learning new technology
• Friendly and collaborative
• Reliable and someone people trust to get things done

You might currently be working as a:

• Project officer or administrator
• Operations coordinator
• Programme support officer
• Secretary or personal assistant
• Editorial assistant

• Coordinating multiple projects simultaneously
• Maintaining accurate documentation
• Supporting project budgets or financial administration
• Using project management software
• Working in an agency, consultancy or professional services environment (helpful but not essential)
• Using AI tools to improve productivity

Within your first year you'll have:

• Become the organisational hub of Agenda
• Reduced the administrative burden on our consultants and directors
• Improved visibility across all projects and budgets
• Helped us introduce smarter systems and processes
• Made it easier for everyone to focus on delivering brilliant work for clients

• Up to 22.5 hours per week (3 days), worked flexibly
• Home-based working
• £275 per day/£36.67 per hour (7.5 hours)
• Flexible working that fits around life
• Interesting, meaningful work with organisations making a positive difference
• A supportive, collaborative team that values new ideas
• A role that will grow as the business grows

We're a small communications consultancy with big ambitions. We believe communications should be rooted in evidence, values and strategy. We work collaboratively with our clients, embrace new technology and are always looking for smarter ways to deliver exceptional work. Our culture is built on trust, curiosity and kindness. We care about doing excellent work - and making work enjoyable. If that sounds like somewhere you'd like to be, we'd love to hear from you.
