Description

Eaton’s Vehicle division is currently seeking a Project Coordinator to join the team. This is a hybrid position, based at the Port Coquitlam, BC site. The expected annual salary range for this role is $82000 - $102000 a year. Please note the salary information shown above is a general guideline only. Salaries are based upon candidate skills, experience, and qualifications, as well as market and business considerations. Eaton announced, on June 11, 2026, the intent to combine its Mobility Group (including both the Vehicle and eMobility segments) with a new company. We expect to complete this process by the end of the first half of 2027. The compensation and benefits that will initially be offered for this position are based on Eaton's plans, programs and practices. If you are offered and accept this position and are actively employed by the Mobility Group when the transaction closes, the new company will provide further details to employees concerning compensation and benefits at that time. What you’ll do: The Project Coordinator is responsible for driving execution discipline, prioritisation, and visibility across a high volume of concurrent small- to medium-sized projects within the Wireless product portfolio. This role operates in a fast-paced, dynamic environment managing multiple parallel initiatives (typically 6–10 active projects at any time) across NPI, sustaining engineering, application development, Sales and operations. The coordinator partners closely with the Wireless leadership team to prioritise work, ensure alignment, and drive execution against business-critical objectives. The role serves as the central coordination point across engineering, operations, supply chain, and commercial teams—ensuring that projects are delivered efficiently, risks are proactively managed, and resources are focused on the highest-impact initiatives. Eaton’s Wireless product line operates within the industrial wireless control systems market, serving the off-highway mobile equipment industry (construction, utility, and industrial machinery). Manufacturing is characterised by high-mix, low-volume industrial electronics production, with strong customization requirements and tight integration between engineering and operations. Essential functions: Multi-Project Coordination: Coordinate execution across multiple concurrent projects (small to medium in size), often with overlapping timelines and shared resources. Manage interdependencies across projects to avoid conflicts and ensure smooth execution. Track progress across all active initiatives, ensuring consistent forward momentum across the portfolio—not just individual projects. Drive accountability across cross-functional teams (engineering, operations, supply chain). Organise and support project and leadership reviews, ensuring effective tracking across multiple workstreams. Capture actions and ensure follow-through across numerous parallel initiatives. Project Prioritisation: Partner with the Wireless leadership team to define, align, and continuously adjust priorities across a high volume of concurrent projects. Manage prioritisation across multiple short-cycle (2–8 week), small- to medium-scale projects running in parallel. Establish and maintain a single source of truth for prioritisation, sequencing, and resource alignment. Maintain a comprehensive project tracker covering all active projects, priorities, milestones, and dependencies. Provide leadership with clear, concise visibility into the status of all concurrent projects, not just major programmes. Highlight capacity constraints, competing priorities, and execution risks across the portfolio. Risk and Mitigation Management: Proactively identify and track risks, roadblocks, and execution gaps across multiple simultaneous projects. Communicate issues in a structured way, ensuring leadership has visibility into portfolio-level risks—not just project-level issues. Work cross-functionally to define and drive mitigation strategies. Escalate critical risks with clear impact and recommended actions. Cross-Functional Alignment: Act as the central integration point across Engineering, Sales and Operations teams. Align teams across multiple concurrent initiatives to ensure priorities are clearly understood and executed. Qualifications: What will make you successful? An ideal candidate demonstrates strong communication and presentation skills, effectively delivering clear status reports and technical updates to both Eaton management and customers. You apply solid analytical thinking, decision-making ability, and business acumen to support project execution and resolve issues proactively. Proficient in Microsoft Project, Excel, and PowerPoint, you leverage tools to track progress, manage data, and communicate insights. You thrive in fast-paced technical environments, successfully managing multiple concurrent projects while maintaining organization, accuracy, and timelines. We are looking for candidates who are diverse in their backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences, and who can bring fresh and innovative ideas to our team. Required (Basic) Qualifications: College diploma or university degree in Engineering, Business, or related field from an accredited institution Minimum 2 years of experience in project coordination and/or programme support Must be legally authorized to work in Canada without corporate sponsorship now or in the future. No relocation provided. This role requires working onsite (hybrid schedule) at our Port Coquitlam, BC facility. Preferred Qualifications: Bachelor’s degree in Engineering PMP Certification from Project Management Institute (PMI) 5 years of experience in project coordination, programme support, or operations in electrical and electronic industry, including manufacturing, engineering, or hardware-based environment. Manufacturing experience with the following: industrial automotive applications (Off-Highway / Mobile Equipment Industry), industrial electronics, electromechanical, embedded SW, product development Experience in requirements and risk management All positions may require participation in video and in-person interviews as part of the hiring process.
