Job description
LACCD is deploying thousands of technology projects across its campuses - network upgrades, wireless deployments, security systems, device rollouts, server infrastructure. Each one has to work on day one, stay within budget, and integrate with existing systems that can't afford downtime.
As Technology Project Coordinator, you're the connective tissue. You'll manage 5-10 projects simultaneously across multiple campuses, tracking schedules, coordinating budgets, documenting deliverables, and keeping stakeholders aligned. You'll develop technical scopes, review submittals, coordinate with vendors and campus IT staff, and feed real-time project data to leadership so decisions get made without delays.
When a network upgrade stalls, you diagnose why. When a wireless deployment costs more than budgeted, you help evaluate options. When an end-user training needs to happen, you organize it. You're not the architect and you're not the installer - you're the person who makes sure the whole thing works together, on time, on budget.
What You'll Own
- Coordination of 5-10 IT projects simultaneously across multiple campuses, ranging in complexity and scope
- Project documentation - initiation forms, schedules, risk logs, technical scopes of work
- Budget and schedule management, tracking actual spend vs. budget and flagging variances early
- Meeting coordination - scheduling, agendas, notes, stakeholder communication
- Contract management - reviewing IT-related contract documents, coordinating submittals, assisting with change order evaluation
- Status reporting to leadership and the Program Management Office, with visibility into cost, schedule, and risk across the portfolio
- Vendor and stakeholder coordination to resolve technical issues and keep projects moving
- End-user training coordination when new systems go live
