This role ensures timely and accurate planning, ordering, and delivery of these components for store remodels, new builds, and merchandising projects. The coordinator collaborates closely with Indirect Planning, Store Experience Design & Architecture, and Construction teams to align on scope, maintain design standards, and manage installation logistics.
