Step into a role where no two days are the same.

As our Project Coordinator, you’ll be at the heart of critical projects and programmes across the business — driving progress, bringing structure to complexity, and championing collaboration at every turn.

You’ll roll up your sleeves to coordinate and execute projects across the full lifecycle, from kick‑off to delivery, with the chance to shape high-impact strategic initiatives including New Product Development (NPD), Existing Product Development (EPD), and major UK-wide business improvements.

If you’re a driven, detail‑focused project professional who thrives on change and wants real influence, this is where you’ll make your mark.

• Manage changes to deliverables and timelines, ensuring updates are controlled, visible and well‑communicated across stakeholders.
• Champion agile, entrepreneurial ways of working, building strong relationships, energising teams and celebrating wins.
• Support the resolution of project issues and conflicts with tact and clarity and drive continuous improvement by capturing and sharing lessons learned.

• Clear, confident communicator with strong negotiation skills and the ability to influence.
• Highly organised, proactive and flexible, able to juggle priorities and adapt quickly when plans shift.
• Energetic, motivated problem‑solver who stays curious, composed, professional and decisive when faced with ambiguity and challenge.
