Description

As a Project Coordinator, you will play a key role in the successful delivery of client projects. Your primary focus will be to deeply understand how the platform works in order to configure solutions that meet client needs.

Over time, you will build strong expertise in the platform and its deployment, while gradually increasing your exposure to client interactions. The goal is for you to eventually manage your own projects end to end, while maintaining hands-on involvement in configuration.


This role is ideal for someone early in their career who is looking to grow within a SaaS environment.

You will need a pragmatic, action-oriented mindset, with a strong ability to communicate clearly and effectively, both internally and with clients.


Important

Documentation and continuous improvement

Client interaction

Support clients during platform implementation
Deliver user training and ensure proper adoption of the platform


What you’ll need to be successful:

Profile
Junior profile with a strong willingness to learn and grow in a SaaS environment

Motivation to develop skills in project management and client-facing roles

Skills and competencies

Nice to have

Comfort working with digital tools or web-based platforms
Experience with ticketing systems or CRM tools (Salesforce, HubSpot, Dynamics) is a plus, not required
