Project Coordinator (Part-time)
Up to 22.5 hours per week (three days) | Home-based | £275 per day/£36.67 per hour
At Agenda, we help charities, NGOs and mission-driven organisations use strategic communications to create positive social change. Our clients work on some of the world's biggest challenges - from medical aid and climate change to health, housing and workers’ rights.
As our consultancy grows, we're looking for someone who loves bringing order to complexity.
This isn't a traditional admin role. It's an opportunity to become the operational heart of a growing consultancy, helping our projects run brilliantly while building smarter systems that make everyone's work easier.
If you're the sort of person who gets genuine satisfaction from colour-coded spreadsheets, beautifully organised information, smooth-running projects and finding better ways of doing things, we'd love to hear from you.
The role
You'll work across every part of the business, supporting our directors and wider team to deliver exceptional work for clients.
One minute you'll be setting up a new client project, the next you'll be updating project plans, preparing workshop logistics, tracking budgets or improving one of our internal systems.
You'll quickly become the person everyone relies on because you always know what's happening across the business.
You'll also have the freedom to improve how we work. We don't just want someone to follow our processes – we want someone who enjoys making them better.
What you'll be doing
You'll:
- Coordinate client projects from proposal through to completion
- Keep project plans, documentation and action trackers up to date
- Schedule client meetings and workshops
- Track budgets, project hours and invoices
- Help maintain an overview of every live project across the agency
- Spot risks and bottlenecks before they become problems
- Improve our internal systems, templates and ways of working
- Organise proposals, documents and knowledge so they're easy to find
- Support colleagues with day-to-day operations and administration
- Help us embrace AI and digital tools to work smarter
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
