Cape Town: Project Coordinator posted by Sabenza IT & Recruitment

Our client, a leading consulting firm, is seeking a detail-oriented Project Coordinator to manage a large-scale hardware rollout and operating system (OS) upgrade initiative. This role focuses on structured coordination, stakeholder engagement, and delivery management rather than complex enterprise-wide transformation projects. It is well-suited to a professional who enjoys managing detail-oriented project logistics within a dynamic consulting environment.

Key Responsibilities:

• Coordinate and oversee the deployment of new hardware and migration to an upgraded operating system (OS).
  
• Manage project timelines, dependencies, and resources to ensure smooth rollout execution.
  
• Maintain and update detailed records such as user lists, appointment schedules, and asset registers.
  
• Collaborate with technical teams, asset management, and change management to ensure effective communication and seamless handovers.
  
• Track progress, identify risks or delays, and proactively drive issue resolution to keep the project on schedule.
  
• Prepare and deliver clear project reports and updates to stakeholders.
  
• Support post-rollout activities and ensure minimal disruption to end users and business operations.
  

Requirements

• 5 years of experience in IT project coordination or mid-level project management, ideally within a consulting or professional services environment.
  
• Demonstrated experience managing large-scale hardware rollouts or system upgrade projects.
  
• Strong organizational and stakeholder management skills, with attention to detail and follow-through.
  
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office, Excel, and project tracking tools (e.g., MS Project, Smartsheet, or Jira).
  
• Excellent communication, coordination, and documentation skills.
  
• Proactive, hands-on approach with the ability to manage multiple workstreams effectively.
