About KN Construction Consultants LLP
KN Construction Consultants LLP works with clients in the United States on residential and commercial construction projects, providing support across project coordination, estimating, purchasing, specifications, design coordination and construction documentation.
We are looking for a mid-level to senior Project Coordinator who can take ownership of assigned projects and work directly with our US-based clients and project teams.
We are looking for someone who can work independently from day one, take responsibility for project outcomes and eventually grow into a Project Manager / Team Lead role.
We need someone with genuine construction experience who understands how projects move from planning through execution and can proactively manage the details that keep a project on track.
The Role
The Project Coordinator will be responsible for the day-to-day coordination of assigned US construction projects and will act as an important link between clients, contractors, designers, vendors and our internal teams.
You will work closely with:
- US clients, builders and contractors
- Architects and interior designers
- Estimating and quantity take-off teams
- Purchasing and procurement
- Subcontractors, vendors and suppliers
- Our India-based project and operations teams
The role requires someone who can look at a project and quickly understand:
What is complete? What is outstanding? What is holding things up? What needs to happen next? Who needs to act? And what could become a problem if it is not addressed now?
Key Responsibilities
Project Coordination & Ownership
- Take day-to-day ownership of assigned US construction projects.
- Coordinate project activities, deliverables and deadlines from pre-construction through completion.
- Maintain project schedules, trackers, action items and milestone dates.

- Monitor dependencies and identify potential delays or project risks.
- Ensure outstanding items are followed through to completion.
- Coordinate between estimating, purchasing, design, documentation and project teams.
- Escalate important issues while continuing to drive them toward resolution.
We are looking for someone who does not need to be told what to follow up on. You should be able to identify priorities and take action independently.

- Identifying discrepancies between drawings, specifications and project requirements.

Depending on the project, you will also support procurement and material coordination, including:
- Tracking material, fixture and finish requirements.
- Following up on supplier information, lead times and deliveries.
- Coordinating with vendors, manufacturers and suppliers.
