Custom Project Coordinator – Drapery & Window Treatments
# Custom Project Coordinator – Drapery & Window Treatments **Loomcraft Textiles** · Vernon Hills, IL 60061 · `On-site` 🕒 **Статус:** *Опубликовано: 7 дней назад* · *Источник: Indeed* --- ### About the Role TITLE: Custom Project Coordinator – Drapery & Window Treatments COMPANY: Loomcraft Fabrics & Textile Co. About the Position We are seeking a highly organized, detail-oriented Custom Project Coordinator to oversee the operational side of our custom drapery and window treatment business. This is not a sales position. You will serve as the operational partner to our design/sales team, helping move custom projects efficiently from pre-sale preparation and client approval through fabrication, quality control, delivery, installation, and final resolution. You will help ensure our designers have the information they need to present projects accurately and efficiently. Once a project is approved, you will take ownership of coordinating the many moving parts required to bring it successfully through completion. The ideal candidate enjoys bringing order to complex projects, anticipating needs, solving problems, and making sure important details do not fall through the cracks. You will work closely with design/sales consultants, independent workrooms, installers, vendors, and fabric suppliers to ensure each project meets our quality standards and remains on schedule. The Impact You’ll Have If you enjoy bringing order to complexity, anticipating what is needed before it becomes a problem, and helping clients and coworkers feel confident that someone capable has the details covered, this position offers an opportunity to make a visible difference. You will become an important partner to our design/sales team, allowing our designers to spend more time doing what they do best—designing and working with clients—while you keep the operational details behind each project moving. When something does not go according to plan, you will help lead the “we’ll make it right” effort, coordinating a prompt and thoughtful resolution that turns a potential frustration into an experience that builds trust. As our custom business grows, you will also have the opportunity to help shape the procedures and systems that make that growth possible. Primary Responsibilities - Partner with design/sales consultants during project development to gather and coordinate the information needed for accurate and timely client proposals. - Obtain information such as workroom pricing, product and fabric availability, fabrication requirements, measurement details, scheduling considerations, and solution feasibility. - Review project information for completeness and accuracy before it is presented to the client or released for production. - Identify missing information, potential complications, and project dependencies early, and proactively coordinate their resolution. - Take ownership of the operational progression of approved custom projects through fabrication, quality control, delivery, installation, and completion. - Establish and monitor project timelines, following up proactively to keep projects on schedule. - Coordinate with design/sales consultants, fabric suppliers, vendors, independent workrooms, and installers. - Track outstanding information, client approvals, materials, measurements, production status, delivery requirements, and installation scheduling. - Maintain consistent communication with workrooms regarding production status, deadlines, and project requirements. - Keep the designer informed of project status, issues, and resolutions so the designer can remain connected to the client relationship without personally managing every operational detail. - Develop and maintain quality-control procedures. - Ensure workrooms perform thorough quality inspections before completed products are shipped or released for installation. - Serve as the primary operational resource when project issues arise, coordinating corrective action with workrooms, vendors, installers, and internal teams through resolution. - Maintain accurate project documentation and provide clear, timely status updates. - Identify and implement process improvements that increase efficiency, accuracy, visibility, and customer satisfaction. - Assist in developing standardized procedures and workflows as our custom business continues to grow. Qualifications - Exceptional organizational and time-management skills. - Strong administrative and project-coordination abilities. - Excellent written and verbal communication skills. - Ability to manage multiple projects, deadlines, and priorities simultaneously. - Strong attention to detail and consistent follow-through. - Ability to identify potential problems and coordinate solutions proactively. - Comfortable working with spreadsheets, order-management systems, and Microsoft Office. - Ability to build productive relationships with internal teams, independent workrooms, installers, and outside vendors. - Self-motivated, dependable, and able to work independently. Preferred Qualifications - Experience in custom drapery, window treatments, interior design, furniture, cabinetry, construction, or another custom or made-to-order industry. - Experience coordinating production schedules, installations, or vendor relationships. - Background in operations, project coordination, production coordination, or project management. - Experience developing, documenting, or improving operational procedures. What Success Looks Like A successful candidate will: - Keep projects moving without requiring constant supervision. - Help shorten the time from initial project development to client presentation and approval. - Catch missing information and potential problems before they affect production schedules or the customer. - Reduce the administrative and operational burden on the design/sales team, allowing designers to spend more time designing, working with clients, and generating sales. - Create a seamless partnership between design/sales and project coordination so the client experiences one organized team from project development through installation. - Hold vendors and workrooms accountable while maintaining productive, professional relationships. - Coordinate an efficient “we’ll make it right” response when problems occur while minimizing unnecessary inconvenience and disruption for the client. - Improve consistency, communication, and visibility throughout the custom-order process. - Build scalable processes and systems that support continued growth in the custom business. Compensation Base salary: $50,000–$70,000 annually, depending on experience, plus performance-based incentive opportunities. Incentives may be based on the growth and overall performance of the custom drapery and window treatment business, successful project completion, operational efficiency, quality standards, process improvement, and achievement of other departmental objectives. Candidates with significant custom drapery, window treatment, workroom, or installation-management experience may be considered above the posted range. Pay: $50,000.00 - $70,000.00 per year Benefits: - 401(k) - 401(k) matching - Dental insurance - Employee discount - Health insurance - Paid time off - Retirement plan - Vision insurance Application Question(s): - Please describe any experience you have in custom drapery, window treatments, interior design, home furnishings, textiles, furniture, cabinetry, construction, or another made-to-order industry.
