DMEx PMO Project Coordinator
The Defence Materials Centre of Excellence (DMEx) is expanding as our programme continues to accelerate. We are excited to be recruiting three PMO Project Coordinators to join our existing team, supporting the next phase of growth for this major Dstl-funded national research centre.
These posts form part of a wider expansion of the PMO as the team rapidly grows to meet increasing programme ambition.
DMEx brings together world-leading researchers, specialist engineers and professional services experts to advance innovation in defence materials. As the Centre’s activity increases, these new roles will strengthen our established Project Management Office (PMO) and offer an exciting opportunity to be part of a dynamic, high-impact environment.
As a PMO Project Coordinator, you will support project reporting, and day-to-day operations across a diverse portfolio of research activity. You will coordinate work across research groups, professional services teams and external partners, ensuring smooth information flow and effective project delivery. Typical responsibilities include supporting meetings and review cycles, coordinating resource, maintaining documentation and systems, and helping to run events, workshops and communications.
