What are the responsibilities and job description for the Project Field Operations Coordinator position at Fonroche Lighting America?
Location: Orlando, FL (On-site) | Up to 40–50% Travel Required
Who We Are
At Fonroche Lighting America, we’re leading the shift toward off-grid, solar-powered lighting systems that help cities and developers build resilient, sustainable infrastructure. Our retrofit projects replace outdated grid-connected lighting with smart, solar-powered solutions—one streetlight at a time.
We Operate With a Strong Set Of Core Values
We’re looking for a Project Field Operations Coordinator to support our growing network of installation projects across the U.S. This role is ideal for someone early in their career who’s eager to learn the ropes of project management and field operations within a fast-paced, technical environment.
You’ll coordinate with cities, utilities, and contractors to ensure projects are properly scheduled, documented, and executed. You’ll also spend time in the field during key phases of installation — helping oversee work, verify site readiness, and assist with troubleshooting alongside our senior technical team.
This is a role split between office coordination and field execution, offering hands-on experience in both project planning and on-site installation management.
Key Responsibilities
Project Coordination (Office-Based – ~60%)
If you’re organized, adaptable, and excited to take on both coordination and fieldwork responsibilities, this role offers the perfect blend of hands-on experience and long-term career growth.
