We are looking for an ambitious and versatile Operations Coordinator to support the COO in driving execution across projects, production, service, and internal operations.
This role is ideal for a high-potential generalist profile who thrives in a fast-paced environment, enjoys connecting dots between departments, and wants to grow into a future operations leadership role.
You will operate in a technical scale-up environment where water treatment systems are engineered, assembled, delivered, operated, and serviced internationally. You will work across project management, engineering, production, and service, ensuring structure, follow-up, and alignment in a growing international company.
This is not an administrative coordination role. It is a hands-on operational execution role for someone who can help structure complexity, follow up independently, and support teams in getting things done.
🎯 Your mission
Your mission is to bring structure, rhythm, and execution discipline to BOSAQ’s operations as we scale projects, production, and service internationally. You will help convert plans into action, clarify ownership, follow up relentlessly, and support teams in moving from ad hoc execution to scalable ways of working.
You report directly to the COO and act as an execution partner for operational priorities, ensuring that decisions, risks, actions, and follow-ups remain visible and move forward.
🧐 Key responsibilities
Project coordination & execution
Maintain clear overall project planning, milestones, deliverables, open actions, risks, and decision points across ongoing projects
Drive follow-up on execution: deadlines, actions, risks, decisions, escalations, and closure of open points
Support resource planning, priority setting, and resource allocation across projects, production, service, and engineering
Prepare structured project kick-offs and ensure disciplined close-out, lessons learned, documentation, and transfer to service
Cross-department operations

Help resolve mechanical, electrical, assembly, and documentation-related issues during production
You do not need to be the technical expert in every discipline, but you must understand mechanical and electrical assembly logic well enough to ask the right questions, detect bottlenecks, and support production teams effectively
Service department & ERP transition
Support the structuring of the operations & maintenance department, including service workflows, ownership, and follow-up routines

Support the Enterprise Resource Planning transition for operations by helping define clean data structures, workflows, production planning logic, service processes, follow-up routines, and user adoption

Manage and execute continuous improvement projects
Support implementation of scalable systems and dashboards (KPIs, reporting)
Assist COO in strategic execution follow-up
Create measurable progress through clearer priorities, better visibility on risks, fewer unresolved bottlenecks, stronger cross-department alignment, and more reliable execution reporting to the COO
