Full description
As we expand our activities in the Dominican Republic, we’re looking for a Project Coordinator to support the delivery of the Mella Project.
Why this role matters:
You’ll be the local coordination point connecting what’s happening on site with SUNOTEC’s international project team.
Working closely with the Project Manager, contractors and specialists across engineering, procurement, construction, quality, HSE, logistics and commercial functions, you’ll help maintain a clear and accurate view of project progress and keep actions moving.
This is a hands-on, site-oriented role. You won’t replace the Construction Manager or specialized technical teams, but you’ll provide the continuous local coordination and follow-up that helps the wider team identify issues early, make informed decisions and keep the project on track.
Where you’ll make an impact:
- Maintain regular presence at the Mella Project site, following construction progress against agreed schedules, milestones and priorities and giving the Project Manager reliable visibility of what’s happening on the ground;
- Keep contractors, subcontractors and project stakeholders aligned by following up on open actions, commitments, deadlines and upcoming works, identifying delays or constraints before they affect project delivery;
- Maintain structured and traceable project documentation across SharePoint, Procore and agreed project systems, including drawings, technical submissions, RFIs, correspondence, approvals, non-conformities and handover documentation;
- Turn site information into clear project reporting by collecting and consolidating progress data, photographs, manpower and equipment information, open points and key dependencies for regular project updates;
- Coordinate the flow of information between SUNOTEC’s international teams and local contractors, consultants, suppliers, authorities and service providers, including communication between Spanish- and English-speaking stakeholders;
- Keep decisions and commitments visible by coordinating project and site meetings, preparing structured Minutes of Meeting and maintaining action trackers with clear owners and deadlines;
- Support the Project Manager with day-to-day coordination across engineering, procurement, construction, quality, HSE, logistics and commercial activities, including interfaces between the PV plant, BESS, substation, transmission line and grid connection works;
- Support the local organization of the project, including mobilization of SUNOTEC personnel, site visits, access, transportation, accommodation and other project logistics when required.
