Project Coordinator, Education and outreach
We’re seeking to hire a Project Coordinator who is committed to collaboration, taking initiative, organization and getting things done. The Project Coordinator will work closely with the Director of Education and Outreach to manage and be the day-to-day contact for a wide range of clients. This will include helping deliver our growing interpretive signage projects.
For this role, we’re in search of someone who is looking to grow their skills in the field of science communication, leveraging a strong foundation of project management, writing, excellent customer service and organization/planning. This individual will have experience in education pedagogy, Indigenous ways of knowing and science, specifically the fields of environmental and conservation sciences or at a minimum have a strong interest in these disciplines.
The project coordinator manages aspects of project planning and acts as a channel of information flow between our internal team, vendor partners and the client. The project coordinator plays a critical role in supporting and managing the client relationship and connecting workplans for individual projects to the needs and timelines of a growing team.
A successful candidate will possess meticulous organization skills with a proven ability to see projects through to completion. The individual will have the ability to understand complex projects, break them down into a series of tasks, and coordinate and manage tasks through our Asana project management software. The individual will have strong listening and communication skills and the ability to synthesize, develop and present clear and concise communications in a way that not only articulates our team’s point of view but also respects the best interests of, and delivers value to, the client.
This role may require the ability to attend in-person meetings for signage site visits, overseeing the installation of interpretive signs, and meeting with clients (access to a vehicle is a must). These meetings mostly occur in or near Edmonton, Alberta and therefore preference will be given to candidates who are located in the Edmonton area.
