If the additional funding is granted then the Project Coordinator will have the option to extend their contract for a further period of 4 years to manage the project, alongside the recruitment of additional positions to deliver the project.
The Project Coordinator will prepare the application for the delivery phase and work with partners to ensure that all preparations are complete. This includes developing all policies and procedures, managing budgets and resources, developing training courses with partners, carrying out risk assessments, developing links with other agencies and seeking additional funding from trusts and foundations or other funding sources.
