FREELANCE PROJECT, PRODUCTION & LOGISTICS COORDINATOR

Location: Milton Keynes

Rate: £16.00–£18.00 per hour (depending on experience)

Status: Self-Employed Freelance Contractor

Industry: Exhibitions, Events & Joinery Manufacturing

ABOUT US

We are a busy exhibition stand building and joinery company based in Milton Keynes, delivering projects throughout the UK and Europe.

We are looking for a reliable, organised and proactive Freelance Project, Production & Logistics Coordinator to become a key part of our team on an ongoing basis.

This role combines project coordination, production scheduling, purchasing, logistics and workshop coordination. You will work directly with the Director, workshop team, suppliers and clients to ensure projects move smoothly from handover through production and delivery.

This is not simply an administrative role. We are looking for somebody who takes ownership, follows tasks through to completion and actively helps keep projects moving forward.

The position is offered on a self-employed freelance basis. The successful candidate will invoice for their time and will be responsible for their own tax, National Insurance and pension arrangements.

As this is a freelance position operating within a seasonal industry, no minimum number of hours can be guaranteed.

Training will be provided on our systems and processes; however, applicants must already have previous coordination experience and be comfortable managing multiple moving parts, deadlines, suppliers and subcontractors.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Coordinate projects from handover through to completion
Create, maintain and update production schedules
Coordinate workshop workflow and labour requirements
Liaise with clients, suppliers, subcontractors and workshop staff
Order materials, equipment and long-lead items
Raise and track purchase orders
Arrange logistics, transport, venue access and contractor passes
Track project deadlines, budgets and progress
Record client changes and project variations
Maintain accurate project records and documentation
Carry out regular progress reviews with workshop staff
Assist with quality control, snagging and project close-out
Support site operations during busy exhibition periods

ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS

Previous project coordination, production coordination, operations coordination, construction administration or similar experience is essential
Strong Microsoft Excel skills
Full UK driving licence
Excellent organisational and communication skills
Strong attention to detail
Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously
Ability to work independently and take ownership of tasks
Reliable, proactive and comfortable working in a fast-paced environment
Must be able to attend our Milton Keynes workshop regularly
Must be able to work Fridays

WORKING ENVIRONMENT

This role involves regular interaction with workshop staff, tradespeople, subcontractors, drivers and site crews.

The successful candidate must be confident communicating with a wide range of personalities and be comfortable working in a practical manufacturing and construction environment.

You should be able to communicate clearly, remain calm under pressure and not be intimidated by direct communication styles when coordinating work and resolving issues.

A sense of humour, resilience and the ability to build positive working relationships with practical, hands-on people will be valuable in this role.

HOURS & AVAILABILITY

This is a freelance role within a seasonal industry and hours are not guaranteed.

During active periods, typical hours are between 24 and 32 hours per week, with additional hours often available during busy exhibition periods.

At peak times, the role may require five-day weeks, longer working days and occasional out-of-hours calls.

Conversely, during quieter periods there may be significantly reduced hours or occasional periods where little or no work is available.

Typical working hours when work is available are 8:30am to 4:30pm.

We can offer a degree of flexibility around school drop-offs and pick-ups for the right candidate; however, the successful applicant must be available during core business hours and able to attend our Milton Keynes workshop regularly.

Fridays are essential.

This role is best suited to somebody who values flexibility and whose personal circumstances allow them to increase their availability during busy periods.

DESIRABLE EXPERIENCE

Exhibitions
Events
Joinery
Manufacturing
Shopfitting
Construction
Production planning

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

The right person for this role is highly organised, proactive and takes ownership of tasks.

Chasing suppliers and subcontractors
Following up outstanding actions
Identifying problems before they become urgent
Keeping accurate schedules and records
Managing multiple deadlines simultaneously
Walking into the workshop and confidently discussing progress with tradespeople and subcontractors
Taking ownership of problems and driving them through to resolution
Maintaining momentum across multiple live projects without being reminded
Keeping production moving without needing constant direction

This role is not suitable for someone who requires constant supervision or direction.

WHAT WE OFFER

£16.00–£18.00 per hour depending on experience
Long-term freelance relationship
Full training and support
Flexible working arrangement with some accommodation for school-run commitments
Varied and interesting projects
Opportunity to become a key part of a growing business

A brief summary of your relevant coordination experience
Your availability

Your preferred working days
An example of a project, production schedule or operational process that you personally coordinated from start to finish
