About Plan It UK
Plan It UK is a residential architectural design, engineering, and project management firm working across London, Kent, Essex, and the surrounding areas. We help homeowners take extensions and loft conversions from initial idea through planning, building regulations, and into construction — and we're looking for a Project & Operations Coordinator to keep that process running smoothly from the office.
About the Role
This is a role for someone who thrives on organization. You'll be the person making sure nothing falls through the cracks across a busy pipeline of residential projects — chasing the right people at the right time, keeping our records straight, and giving our design team the space to focus on design rather than admin.
What You'll Be Doing
Project Coordination
- Coordinating Building Control and planning applications
- Liaising with Party Wall Surveyors, SAP Assessors, and other consultants
- Chasing clients, consultants, and Local Authorities to keep things moving
- Monitoring progress across live projects
- Keeping on top of outstanding actions
- Ensuring project information and records are always up to date
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.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Client Interaction
- Answering calls
- Communicating clearly and professionally
- Supporting our designers and project leads to keep the team organized and focused on delivering great design
Financial Administration
- Sending and chasing invoices

- Maintaining trackers in Excel
- Spotting problems before they become problems

- Looking for ways to make our administrative processes better
What We're Looking For
We care far more about how you work than what you already know about construction. The technical side — how a Building Control application works, what a Party Wall Surveyor does — we'll teach you. What we can't teach is drive.
We're looking for someone who is:
- Highly organised and methodical
- Self-motivated and able to work independently
- Naturally proactive, with a strong sense of urgency
- Reliable and disciplined
- Comfortable managing multiple projects and competing priorities
- Confident communicating with clients and professional consultants
- Commercially aware and comfortable working with numbers
- Excellent with Excel
- A strong team player who actively looks for ways to support others
- Customer-focused, with a professional telephone manner

Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Experience in construction, architecture, property, or project coordination would be an advantage, but it's not essential — we're hiring for the person, not the CV.
Career Growth
