At Ground Control, we’re not just about meeting targets, we’re about building strong, reliable relationships with our clients and delivering consistently high standards of service. In this role, you’ll act as the first point of contact for a portfolio of clients, managing day-to-day communication, resolving escalations, and coordinating service delivery to ensure contract requirements are met.
This is a seasonal, high-impact role, supporting clients through our busiest and most critical period from October to April, when our services are in highest demand.

As a Client Services Coordinator, you’ll work closely with internal teams to support contract delivery and maintain strong client relationships. Outside of the winter season (May to September), your focus will shift towards contract renewals support, client relationship development, and wider business support activities, providing a varied and rewarding role year-round.

Manage your time with autonomy – balance travel, meetings, and administrative duties.
Keep things on track – chase invoicing queries, close off outstanding PPM billing, and maintain accurate client documentation.
Analyse performance – use Power BI, KPI reports, and client portals to spot trends and drive improvements.
