Are you super into tech and what goes into building an app or website? Well, that is exactly what my client focuses on. They are a tech-driven app and web development company that has a strong playing hand in the fintech and insurance sectors. Their head office is in Johannesburg but they have a few people working remote from Cape Town. They are looking for a project coordinator/administrator to join their team in either Cape Town or Johannesburg.

A project administrator is a professional who organises the necessary team members and specialises in facilitating, reporting and analysing projects under the supervision of a project manager.

An effective project administrator frees the project manager to deal with people, project, technical and stakeholder managements issues by taking care of the day-to-day administration of the project. The project administrator may also be required to provide administrative support not only to the project manager but also to the entire project team.
