About the Role

We are looking for a smart, highly organized, technology-comfortable and extremely dependable Executive Coordinator to work directly with the Director and coordinate with teams across Celestix Industries.

This role combines senior management support, business operations coordination, meeting coordination, project coordination and follow-up management. It shares some responsibilities with an Executive Assistant to Director or Operations Coordinator, but its primary focus is execution, accountability and ensuring that business priorities are completed.

This is not a routine administrative or desk-based coordination position.

The person will work closely with the Director, participate in meetings, prepare accurate Minutes of Meeting (MOM), understand priorities and action items, maintain action trackers, and ensure that commitments made by different departments are actually completed.

A major part of the position is knowing what needs to happen, who is responsible, when it is due, and following through until it is finished. This requires strong task tracking, deadline tracking, progress tracking and cross-functional coordination.

The right candidate should be naturally good at follow-up. You should be able to maintain positive working relationships while being persistent enough to get things done. Sometimes this requires a friendly reminder; sometimes it requires pushing harder and escalating an issue before it becomes a problem.

This position offers significant exposure to how a manufacturing company operates and is intended for someone looking for a long-term career and substantial professional growth.

Key Responsibilities

1. Director Coordination & Senior Management Support

  • Work directly with the Director on business priorities, open tasks and ongoing initiatives.
  • Attend meetings with the Director and relevant internal teams.
  • Take clear and detailed meeting minutes (MOM), documenting discussions, decisions and commitments.
  • Convert discussions into specific action items, responsible owners and expected completion dates.
  • Maintain visibility of open commitments through action trackers and task tracking systems, ensuring nothing important is forgotten.
  • Provide the Director with clear status reporting and management updates on what has been completed, what remains pending and where intervention may be required.

The objective is to provide reliable management coordination and executive support that allows the Director to focus on decisions while ensuring agreed actions are consistently followed through.

2. Internal Follow-Up & Action Tracking

  • Coordinate with department heads and team members across the organization.
  • Follow up consistently on tasks assigned during meetings or directly by the Director.
  • Develop good working relationships with different departments so that follow-ups remain professional and constructive.
  • Know when a friendly reminder is sufficient and when stronger follow-up is required.
  • Push for closure without creating unnecessary conflict.
  • Escalate delays, risks and repeated non-compliance when appropriate.
  • Verify completion rather than simply accepting that something is "being worked on."

This requires strong follow-up management, action tracking, task tracking, deadline tracking and progress tracking to ensure commitments are completed within the agreed timelines.

3. Cross-Functional Coordination & Business Operations

The position involves extensive cross-functional coordination and interdepartmental coordination across multiple business functions, including:

  • Operations
  • Production
  • Sales
  • Purchase
  • Engineering
  • Quality
  • Supply Chain
  • Logistics
  • Finance
  • IT
  • Other support departments

The candidate is not expected to be an expert in every department. However, they must be intelligent and curious enough to understand what is being discussed, ask the right questions, document decisions correctly and follow through.

The role requires practical business coordination across teams with different responsibilities, priorities and deadlines.

Depending on the Director's ongoing priorities, this may involve tracking business initiatives, coordinating project-related activities, monitoring progress and ensuring that action items assigned to different departments are completed.

Technology Skills

We strongly prefer someone who is naturally comfortable with technology.

The ideal candidate should be strong with computers and able to learn new systems quickly.

Experience or familiarity with the following is preferred:

  • Microsoft Excel (MS Excel): Task tracking, action trackers, deadline tracking and basic reporting.
  • ERP Systems: Understanding business information and operational workflows.
  • ChatGPT and Other AI Tools: Using technology to improve efficiency and solve problems.
  • SQL or Basic Database Concepts: Familiarity with business data and database systems.
  • Power BI or Similar Reporting Tools: Exposure to business reporting and data visualization.
  • Microsoft Office: General business documentation, meeting minutes and reporting.
  • General Computer Troubleshooting: Confidence working with technology and resolving everyday technical issues.

Experience with MIS reporting, management reporting, status reporting and progress tracking is useful for maintaining clear visibility of business priorities and pending activities.

Expert-level knowledge of every tool is not required. More important is the ability to understand technology quickly and confidently use it to solve problems.

Who Will Succeed

We are looking for someone who demonstrates the following qualities:

Extremely Detail-Oriented

If five tasks were discussed in a meeting, all five should be captured in the meeting minutes or action tracker and followed through. Small details cannot routinely be missed.

Persistent but Professional

You should be comfortable following up multiple times when necessary without damaging relationships with colleagues.

Smart and Quick to Understand

You will be exposed to many different areas of the business. You should be able to understand unfamiliar subjects quickly.

Highly Accountable

Once you take ownership of following something through, the Director should not need to remind you about it.

Comfortable Communicating Across Levels

You may need to coordinate with junior team members, engineers, managers and department heads. Strong communication and interdepartmental coordination skills are important.

Technology-Oriented

You should enjoy learning new software, systems and tools rather than avoiding them.

Comfortable in a Manufacturing Environment

This position is based inside our factory rather than a conventional corporate office. You should be comfortable interacting with teams across manufacturing and business operations.

Serious About Career Growth

We are looking for someone who wants to build a long-term career rather than simply move through another coordination position.

Working Environment & Hours

This position works directly with the Director inside our manufacturing facility.

Because of this, flexibility regarding working hours is important. There will regularly be days when the candidate needs to stay beyond normal factory hours to attend meetings, review priorities or close important tasks with the Director.

The position involves six full working days per week, with Sunday generally being a half working day.

Candidates should carefully consider their commute to our Changodar factory before applying. Because of the working schedule and the nature of the position, we strongly prefer candidates who live within a practical commuting distance or are willing to relocate closer.

This role is best suited to someone who is comfortable with a demanding work environment and sees the additional exposure as an opportunity to accelerate their learning and career.

What You Will Gain

This position provides something that many traditional Executive Assistant, Operations Coordinator or Project Coordinator roles cannot: direct exposure to senior management and multiple functions of the business.

You will have the opportunity to understand how decisions are made across sales, operations, production, purchasing, engineering, quality, supply chain and other areas of a manufacturing organization.

You will also develop practical experience in business operations, cross-functional coordination, management reporting, project coordination, action tracking and execution management.

As your capability and understanding grow, so will your responsibility.

The long-term objective is for the successful candidate to progress from:

Coordination → Ownership → Independent Responsibility → Management

For an ambitious person early in their career, this position can provide several years' worth of cross-functional learning in a relatively short period.

Ideal Candidate Profile

We would particularly like to meet candidates who have:

  • 2–4 years of professional experience; strong candidates with 1–2 years may also be considered.
  • BE/B.Tech in IT, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering or another relevant technical discipline.
  • Experience in executive coordination, operations coordination, project coordination, sales coordination, manufacturing or a similar environment.
  • Strong attention to detail.
  • Excellent follow-up management and task-tracking ability.
  • Ability to maintain action trackers and monitor deadlines.
  • Good written and verbal communication.
  • Confidence interacting with managers and department heads.
  • Strong computer skills.
  • Good working knowledge of MS Excel.
  • Exposure to ERP systems, AI tools, SQL or Power BI is an advantage.
  • A practical problem-solving mindset.
  • Willingness to work from our factory and accommodate extended working hours when required.
  • Interest in building a long-term career with the organization.

Candidates with experience supporting senior management, coordinating multiple departments, maintaining meeting minutes, tracking action items or preparing operational status reports may be particularly well suited to this position.

This Role May Not Be Right for You If

This position will probably not be a good fit if you:

  • Prefer a strictly fixed-hours job.
  • Are uncomfortable following up repeatedly with people.
  • Frequently forget small details or require reminders yourself.
  • Prefer waiting for instructions rather than taking ownership.
  • Are uncomfortable working in a factory environment.
  • Do not enjoy learning new technology.
  • Have a difficult daily commute to Changodar and are not willing to relocate closer.
  • Are primarily looking for a short-term position.

This is an execution-focused Executive Coordinator role, not a conventional Personal Assistant, Secretary or Administrative Assistant position focused mainly on diary management, travel bookings and routine office administration.

The Opportunity

We are not simply looking for someone to maintain a task list.

We are looking for someone the Director can gradually depend on to make things happen.

Initially, your responsibility will be to understand, document, coordinate and follow up. You will help maintain clarity around meeting decisions, action items, responsible departments, progress updates and deadlines.

Over time, as you demonstrate judgment and reliability, you will be given greater ownership and increasingly important responsibilities.

For the right person, this can develop into a significant long-term role within the organization.
