Project Coordinator (12 month Contract, Toronto) 

Who we are:

Leo Berwick is an innovative mergers and acquisitions consulting firm.

As a growth-stage company, we move quickly, work collaboratively, and value people who take initiative and thrive in a fast-paced environment. Our culture is grounded in high performance, continuous learning, and the shared ambition to build something exceptional, together.  

About the role:

We are building a delivery‑enablement Project Management Office (PMO) to support the execution of complex, operations‑led initiatives. As a Project Coordinator, you will play a key role in keeping projects organized, visible, and progressing as planned.

  • Are highly organized and take pride in keeping work moving smoothly
  • Enjoy supporting multiple initiatives in parallel
  • Have strong attention to detail and follow‑through
  • See structure and visibility as essential to execution success

  • Own day‑to‑day execution hygiene across active initiatives

  • Prepare and maintain status updates, notes, and action logs

  • Track dependencies, follow‑ups, and delivery milestones

  • Support reporting accuracy and consistency across projects

  • Keep project information current, organized, and accessible

  • Enable PMs to stay focused on delivery momentum—not admin

What you Bring:

  • Undergraduate degree in Commerce, Business or a related field
  • 3–5 years of experience in project coordination or operational support
  • Strong organizational and time‑management skills; able to manage multiple priorities smoothlyDetail‑oriented with a track record of clean documentation and follow‑through

  • Experience maintaining status reports, action logs, and dependency tracking
