Project Coordinator

Project Coordinator – Life Science & Cleanroom Construction

Philadelphia, PA
(Headquarters)

Full-time | Early-Career Opportunity

Metric is proud to be partnering with one of the largest and fastest-growing cleanroom and life science construction companies in the United States, supporting the search for a
Project Coordinator
to join their expanding Philadelphia team.

Our client is a nationally recognized leader in pharmaceutical, biotech, and advanced manufacturing construction — delivering highly technical, controlled-environment facilities across the U.S. They are committed to developing the next generation of construction leaders and offer an exceptional pathway for growth.

About the Role

As a
Project Coordinator
, you will support the successful delivery of major cleanroom and life science projects by assisting Project Managers and site teams with planning, documentation, procurement, and field coordination. This role provides hands-on learning exposure and is ideal for candidates early in their career who are eager to build a strong foundation in technical construction management.

What You'll Be Doing

• Support project managers with day-to-day coordination and documentation.
• Assist in managing RFIs, submittals, meeting minutes, and change order logs.
• Track procurement, delivery schedules, and material status.
• Collaborate with subcontractors, vendors, and design teams to maintain schedule progress.
• Attend site visits and assist with reporting, punch lists, and quality documentation.
• Support commissioning and close-out activities as needed.
• Work within Procore, Bluebeam, and MS Office to organize project information.

Qualifications

• 0–2+ years of experience in commercial, industrial, or technical construction (internships welcome).
• Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, or related discipline.
• Strong communication and organizational skills with a proactive attitude.
• Interest in highly technical environments (life science, pharmaceutical manufacturing, labs, cleanrooms).
• Experience with Procore or Bluebeam is a plus — training provided.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Be part of a
  national market leader
  in life science and cleanroom construction.
• Join a team known for
  mentorship, career development, and internal promotion
  .
• Work on
  innovative builds that directly impact biotechnology and pharmaceutical advancement
  .
• Competitive salary, full benefits, and clear advancement into Project Engineer / Assistant PM roles.
