The project manager is responsible for planning, initiating and overseeing all project plans until completion. They communicate regularly with team members, contractors, stakeholders and clients. It’s a leadership role that involves delegating tasks to others and trusting them to do their jobs responsibly to have a successful project.
On the other hand, a project coordinator may work under a project manager with administrative responsibilities. They assist with organisation, client and internal communications and by setting meetings to make sure that the project lifecycle is running smoothly.
