PROJECT COORDINATOR

MedCentris
Hammond, LA Full Time
POSTED ON 5/13/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 7/13/2026

Definition and Role

• The position of Project Coordinator will report directly to the Project Manager. This is an entry-level role intended to support the Project Management department through administrative coordination, project support, procurement support, startup support, inventory oversight, and shipping and receiving activities. This position will assist with day-to-day department operations, coordinate meetings, maintain trackers and documentation, support scheduling needs, and help ensure supplies, equipment, and requests are properly tracked and escalated.

• This role is designed to support execution and operational follow-through rather than independent project ownership or unapproved decision-making. The Project Coordinator will work closely with the Project Management team and Facilities to support routine departmental needs, maintain organization and visibility of project-related materials and equipment, and assist with procurement and startup-related workflows. Over time, and with demonstrated competency, this role may assume additional responsibility for processing routine approved orders and other recurring support functions.

• Maintain project trackers, action item logs, spreadsheets, reports, and other project-related documentation.

• Receive, organize, inventory, and distribute incoming shipments, supplies, and equipment.

• Prepare and coordinate outgoing shipments as needed for projects, startups, relocations, providers, or other operational needs.

• Maintain organization of inventory and storage areas, including supply rooms, shelving, and stock management.

• Enter, update, and maintain equipment and supply records in Asset Tiger and other tracking tools as applicable.

• Ensure new equipment is tagged, assigned appropriately, and accurately reflected in inventory systems.

• Assist with tracking movement of equipment and supplies between locations and departments.

• Prepare weekly inventory reports and support ongoing review of supply and equipment levels.

• Assist with Asset Tiger audits, medical equipment audits, and reconciliation of physical inventory to system records.

• Support procurement workflows by monitoring forms, requests, and routine order-related documentation for completeness and accuracy.

• Assist with routine procurement and startup support activities under the direction of leadership.

• Identify unusual requests, discrepancies, missing information, or other red flags and escalate them to the appropriate leadership.

• Communicate professionally with internal staff, vendors, and other stakeholders to support timely follow-up and accurate information flow.

• Support development and maintenance of department procedures, logs, and process documentation as assigned.

• Perform other duties as assigned in support of the Project Management department.
