2,772 Project Administrator Jobs Nationwide
Project administrators typically work under a project manager. They are responsible for several administrative functions related to one or more projects, such as planning, reporting and documentation. As project administrators are responsible for the entire life cycle of the project, they may occasionally perform technical functions that are specific to the project.
Skillset: A project administrator needs to have a good sense of observation and refined communications skills (both verbal and written), to share information about the status of the project with team members and managers. Financial planning, reporting and administration skills are also necessary as project administration often involves dealing with budgets and allocating financial resources where they are needed.
Education: Having an associate's degree in business management, finance or commerce is recommended. Some employers will hire project managers who only hold a high school diploma if they have several years of business management experience, especially if this experience is in the industry the employer operates in.
Career Path: Pursue a degree that is related to business administration. Find positions in administrative functions or junior level management positions, such as planning and scheduling specialist or team supervisor. Keep your performance up to standards at all times and strive to get progressive business administration positions.
