A Better Way to Hire a Project Coordinator

When projects start slipping, the instinct is to blame the plan. Usually the plan is fine and the follow-through is missing: tasks go stale in the tracker, action items evaporate after meetings, and your project managers burn their week on admin instead of decisions. Hiring locally takes months and adds $65K+ in salary for what is fundamentally a discipline role. Our model closes that gap by placing an experienced coordinator inside your projects in weeks.

Every candidate we present has passed structured skills-based testing, real-world scenario evaluation like untangling a stalled project plan, and a hands-on AI fluency assessment. When you hire a project coordinator through us, they are working inside your Asana, Jira, or Monday.com boards within 30 days, and we handle employment contracts, payroll, and HR admin so you manage the work, never the paperwork.

What does a Project Coordinator do?

A project coordinator keeps the machinery of your projects running, so plans stay current, owners stay accountable, and your project managers get their week back.

  • Keep project plans current in Asana, Jira, or Monday.com, updating tasks, dependencies, and deadlines as reality shifts
  • Chase task owners for status before deadlines slip, so blockers surface days earlier than they would otherwise
  • Prepare agendas, take notes, and circulate action items for project meetings, then follow up until every item closes
  • Assemble weekly status reports for stakeholders, pulling progress, risks, and next steps into one clear summary

When is it time to Hire a Project Coordinator?

The moment to hire a project coordinator is usually easy to spot: your best project people are spending their days on updates and reminders instead of actual management.

Your project managers spend more time updating trackers than actually managing projects

Deadlines slip quietly because nobody notices a blocked task until the week it was due

Meeting action items evaporate, and the same decisions get re-litigated two weeks later

Stakeholders keep asking for status because no one has time to communicate it

How much does it cost to Hire a Project Coordinator?

Hiring a project coordinator locally typically costs $5,000 to $7,000 per month once you factor in salary, benefits, and overhead. With our model, you can reduce that cost by up to 70% while still getting a full-time project coordinator working directly inside your project boards, meeting rhythms, and reporting cadence.

Hiring locally
$5Kโ€“$7K/mo
Salary, benefits, and overhead factored in
Through us
from $2.5K/mo
Employment, contracts, and HR administration handled entirely on our side

Contracts, payroll, benefits, and HR admin all stay on our side. What you gain is steady coordination capacity that compounds: when you hire a project coordinator who knows your teams and cadences, each project launches with less setup and slips less often.

Common Questions

How fast can a project coordinator start?
Most are embedded within 30 days, including matching, interviews with your project leads, and onboarding into your boards, templates, and meeting cadence.
What experience do they have?
Typically 3 to 7+ years coordinating projects across software, marketing, construction, or professional services teams, often supporting several concurrent projects for US and European companies.
How do you vet coordinators?
Candidates complete structured skills-based testing, a real-world scenario where they organize a messy project plan and draft stakeholder updates, and a hands-on AI fluency assessment.
Can they run meetings with our stakeholders directly?
Yes. Coordinators routinely prepare agendas, facilitate check-ins, take notes, and follow up with internal and external stakeholders on your behalf, using your communication style and templates.
Will they work in my time zone?
Yes. We match candidates to your working hours so they can attend standups, sprint ceremonies, and status meetings live rather than asynchronously.
What tools do they know?
Most work daily in Asana, Jira, Monday.com, Smartsheet, Notion, Trello, and Slack, and pick up your specific templates and conventions during onboarding.
Why not just use a freelance PM?
Freelancers juggle multiple clients and disappear between engagements. When you hire a project coordinator through us, you get one dedicated person who stays with your projects full time, with employment admin handled.
