    The Role (What You’ll Be Doing)

    As a Project Coordinator at Lightworks, you’ll be a key part of keeping our projects, service work, and field teams running smoothly.

    You’ll work closely with operations, field teams, purchasing, and accounting to make sure the right people and materials are in the right place — and that work is scheduled, billed, and tracked accurately.

    Day to day, you’ll be responsible for things like:

    Scheduling production jobs and service calls

    Coordinating field team schedules and managing capacity

    Maintaining rolling labor and equipment revenue forecasts (updated weekly)

    Following up on daily field team check-ins and progress updates

    Ordering materials and making sure jobs are staged and ready before crews arrive

    Preparing and directing project billings and Requests for Payment

    Monitoring internal revenue recognition and supporting accurate month-end close

    Communicating clearly and proactively across teams

    This role has real responsibility and real impact — on project success, cash flow, and team trust.
