The DE Coordinator is responsible for supporting the project delivery team as well as the wider Delivery Enablement (DE) function, providing real-time project support to the business and owning delivery performance across the live project portfolio. The title is deliberately Coordinator rather than Administrator, signalling independent challenge authority rather than a purely administrative remit.

Throughout the project lifecycle, the DE Coordinator will be required to ensure projects are in line with the CornerStone Delivery Framework by ensuring project governance is applied, providing independent challenge, early risk warning and reliable forecasting, and reporting any internal project ownership risks and issues to the Associate Director – Delivery in a timely manner. The role relieves Associate Directors of day-to-day coordination to focus on delighting clients. We are looking for someone who will actively develop the role and the wider delivery model as the business grows. The successful candidate will bring ideas that improve delivery predictability, refine monitoring and forecasting practice, and help build a scalable, repeatable DE function.

DE Coordinator tasks will include, but are not limited to:

  • Monitoring project delivery, including policing deliverable due dates, updating light touch project schedules, and supporting consultants with handovers from sales or internal consultants at interim stages, and delivery.
  • Using project management tools to administer and coordinate projects with project owners, ensuring project information remains complete, accurate and maintained as the business single source of truth.
  • Supporting new project creation and set up, and engaging with Project Owners to create the initial simple project schedule, keeping the schedules up to date throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Undertaking monitoring reviews of projects with the Project Owners on a one-to-one basis, whilst building good working relationships.
  • Supporting Associate Directors in internal project delivery team update meetings and taking action as required.
  • Reviewing delivery dashboards and reports and flagging issues.
  • Risk-based monitoring of the portfolio, ensuring risks, actions, issues, and changes are registered appropriately, and escalating early warning signals before they reach the client or P OTIF delivery.
  • Forecast accuracy.
  • Resource utilisation.
  • Risk-to-issue rate trending.

The above description details the role’s core activities and is not inclusive of all duties required as a team member. Employees will be required to undertake other duties and responsibilities to support the business objectives as directed.
