We are hiring a Project Coordinator to own end-to-end coordination of large customer projects from order handover through to final delivery. This role sits at the center of the project: keeping internal teams (design, purchase/operations, finance), vendors, sub-contractors, and customers all aligned on timelines, deliverables, and open issues. You will be the single point of accountability for making sure projects don't slip.
This is a coordination and ownership role, not a passive tracking role you are expected to chase, follow up, flag risks early, and push things to closure.

Key Responsibilities
Own complete project tracking for all assigned customer projects timelines, milestones, deliverables, and dependencies
Create and maintain a live project schedule/tracker for each project; flag delays before they become critical
Coordinate internally with Design (engineering drawings, approvals), Operations/Purchase (POs, vendor delivery, dispatch), and Finance/Accounts (billing, payment milestones)
Coordinate externally with customers (status updates, approvals, site coordination) and vendors/sub-contractors (delivery schedules, quality, follow-ups)
Drive weekly/periodic project review meetings internal and customer-facing and circulate minutes/action items
Escalate risks, delays, and blockers to management proactively, with clear root cause and recovery plan
Ensure all project documentation (POs, drawings, approvals, delivery notes, correspondence) is organized and up to date




Track project-wise deliverables against the agreed timeline and report deviations
Act as the primary point of contact for customers on project status and coordination queries
Support post-delivery closure documentation, handover, and any pending commercial/administrative closure

Required Skills & Qualifications
Mechanical or Industrial Engineering background required diploma/degree plus hands-on exposure to manufacturing, fabrication, or industrial project execution
3+ years of experience in project coordination, project management, or customer-facing execution roles in an industrial/engineering/manufacturing environment
Strong organizational skills comfortable managing multiple projects and stakeholders simultaneously
Excellent verbal and written communication able to communicate confidently with customers, vendors, and internal teams
Working knowledge of MS Excel (trackers, timelines) experience with project tracking tools/CRM is a plus
Strong follow-up discipline doesn't let things fall through the cracks
Ability to read and understand technical/engineering drawings and specifications
Problem-solving mindset able to anticipate issues and coordinate a resolution rather than just reporting them
Willingness to travel occasionally for customer/site visits, if required

Valuable to Have (Not Mandatory)
Background/exposure to handling Heavy Engineering, Hydraulics, EPC or similar industrial project execution
Prior experience using ERP/CRM systems for project and order tracking
