Job Description

The Security Project Coordinator will provide project management and administrative support to security leadership and project managers, helping coordinate security-focused initiatives from project initiation through completion. This role supports project planning, scheduling, estimating, project controls, documentation, and progress tracking while ensuring alignment with established project development processes.

The coordinator will work closely with security, operations, IT, construction and development teams, field personnel, and external partners to support security infrastructure improvements, remote monitoring enhancements, technology deployments, and other critical security initiatives. This is primarily a project coordination and management support role, not a hands-on IT position.

The ideal candidate will have strong organizational, analytical, communication, and problem-solving skills, along with an understanding of security systems, project implementation, and project documentation.

  • Coordinate with security, operations, IT, construction and development teams, field personnel, and external partners to ensure project alignment.
  • Assist in maintaining project controls and ensuring adherence to established project management processes.


Project Administration & Documentation

  • Prepare and maintain project schedules, Gantt charts, scopes of work, requirements documents, and project tracking reports.
  • Develop meeting agendas, meeting minutes, presentations, research documents, executive summaries, and other project-related materials.
  • Maintain accurate project records and ensure proper documentation control.
  • Prepare resource estimates, project plans, organizational charts, and process documentation as required.
