Overview
We are looking for a Junior Program Coordinator to support our advisory team.
In this role, you will help coordinate tasks and track milestones for a major engagement where our partner provides operational support for a logistics network.
You will work closely with our partners to keep projects moving forward, ensuring that our advisory work translates into concrete ground reality.
This is a full-time, permanent position structured under a hybrid arrangement, combining independent remote work with collaborative, in-person alignment sessions at our local office space.
This format allows you to balance focused execution at home with productive team planning in person.
What you will do
- Track program timelines, project milestones, and critical action items to ensure administrative objectives stay on schedule.
- Gather and organize operational updates from various counterparties, ensuring the advisory team has an accurate picture of ongoing activities.
- Help prepare clear, factual status reports and decision-support materials that senior leadership can read quickly and act upon.
- Organize and document project meetings, capturing the core decisions, next steps, and counterparty feedback.
- Assist in conducting straightforward research on competitor actions and regulator updates within the territory.
- Maintain the central project database, archiving files systematically so that the team always has the latest information.
- Act as a dependable point of contact for routine scheduling and communication across different project workstreams.
- What you bring
- Strong organizational skills and high attention to detail, with a natural ability to keep track of multiple moving pieces.
- The ability to write clear, direct prose, explaining project updates simply without resorting to corporate jargon or fluff.
- A commercial mindset and genuine curiosity about how large-scale networks, logistics, and partnerships function in practice.
- Reliable follow-through, ensuring that when an action item is assigned, it is tracked until it is fully resolved.
- Comfort working in a hybrid environment, which requires excellent self-management when remote and active engagement when in-person.
- Basic proficiency with spreadsheets and collaborative tools, allowing you to update trackers and organize data efficiently.
- A collaborative attitude, feeling comfortable asking questions early and raising flags if a deadline is slipping.
- What we offer
- A paid entry-level position with attractive pay for the market, providing a strong foundation for a career in commercial project management.
- A balanced hybrid routine, offering the flexibility of working from home alongside the mentorship of in-person collaboration.
- Direct exposure to seasoned partners who stay involved in projects from start to finish, offering a unique opportunity to learn from senior professionals.
- A professional environment focused on real-world outcomes, where your coordination work directly supports high-stakes decisions and operational launches.
