Job description

Do you thrive in the chaos of competing priorities, tight deadlines, and multiple projects? Do you love technology, obsess over the details, and take pride in getting things done no matter what?

At Gateway Mechanical, we're looking for a Project Coordinator who doesn't wait to be told what needs doing. You're highly organized, tech-savvy, customer-focused, and relentless when it comes to delivering results. You thrive in a fast-paced environment where priorities shift, challenges emerge, and every day brings something new.

If you're the type of person who loves checking things off a list, keeping projects moving, solving problems before they become issues, and making customers rave about the service they receive, we want to talk to you.

Working closely with Project Managers, field teams, subcontractors, consultants, and clients, you'll be at the center of project execution. You'll own schedules, documentation, reporting, coordination, and project administration while helping drive projects from kickoff to successful completion.

• Leverage technology and project management systems to track progress, costs, commitments, schedules, and reporting.
• Monitor project financial performance, invoicing, payments, and revenue forecasting.
• Coordinate site activities and support field teams to ensure seamless project execution.
• Support Project Managers on medium and large-scale projects with budgeting, scheduling, reporting, and project controls.
• Issue, track, and manage purchase orders and project commitments.
• Maintain project tracking tools and reporting systems with accuracy and accountability.
• Process and analyze project reports including Job Cost Detail and Committed Cost Reports.
• Coordinate security clearance and site access requirements for applicable projects.
• Take ownership of project deliverables and find solutions when challenges arise.

You will:

• Champion Gateway's safety culture every day.
• Participate in and support daily HSE activities and meetings.
• Conduct monthly site safety inspections.
• Support COR audit requirements and safety initiatives.
• Lead by example through consistent adherence to safety standards and best practices.
• Promote environmentally responsible and sustainable work practices.
