Project Coordinator Jobs in North Carolina: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a project coordinator in North Carolina?

Most project coordinator roles in North Carolina require at least a bachelor's degree in business, construction management, information technology, or a closely related field. North Carolina does not issue a state license specific to project coordinators, but employers in construction and healthcare frequently expect a CAPM or PMP credential from the Project Management Institute. Candidates who build experience through administrative or operations support roles at North Carolina universities, hospital systems, or contractors move into coordinator positions most reliably.

How much do project coordinators make in North Carolina?

Project coordinators in North Carolina earn a median of about $100,820 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $61,570 for the lowest 10% to over $164,050 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire project coordinators in North Carolina?

Employers hiring project coordinators in North Carolina right now include JE Dunn Construction, City of Charlotte, NC, and Terracon Consultants, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. North Carolina's concentration of research hospitals, financial services headquarters, and defense contractors in the Research Triangle and Charlotte corridor makes it one of the more active states for this role year-round.

Which North Carolina cities have the most project coordinator jobs?

Charlotte, Raleigh, and Winston-Salem have the most project coordinator openings in North Carolina. Charlotte drives volume through its financial services and construction sectors, while Raleigh and Durham benefit from the Research Triangle's dense cluster of technology firms, universities, and healthcare systems that run continuous project workloads requiring dedicated coordination support.

Are there remote project coordinator jobs in North Carolina?

Yes, and more than many field-based roles. Project coordination is largely desk and communication work, which makes it well suited to remote arrangements. About 40% of project coordinator openings tied to North Carolina are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting broader adoption across the state's technology and financial services employers. Roles tied to construction sites or hospital facilities tend to require on-site presence.

How can I get hired as a project coordinator in North Carolina with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is moving from an administrative or operations assistant role into a junior coordinator position at a large North Carolina employer. Healthcare systems like UNC Health and Atrium Health run structured onboarding programs that bring in candidates without direct project experience. Construction firms in Charlotte frequently hire project administrator trainees who work alongside senior coordinators. Earning a CAPM certification before applying gives candidates with limited experience a concrete differentiator in the North Carolina market.

Where can I find and apply to project coordinator jobs in North Carolina?

You can find and apply to project coordinator jobs in North Carolina on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings across the state. Search the listings for roles that match your experience level and preferred location, then apply directly to the ones that fit.
