• Collaborating with our US-based partner Mobility Innovations to support design requirements overseas
• Liaising with UK agents and dealerships to arrange vehicle sourcing and transportation
• Managing the ordering of replacement car parts for new kit development
• Ensuring all NKD projects follow the stage gate process with proper documentation and approvals
• Supporting production planning to ensure necessary stock is available for launch
• Driving the pace of NKD to meet commercial deadlines
• Maintaining and sharing updated kit lists for regular marketing communications

• Proven experience in project coordination or management
• Strong organisational and record-keeping skills
• Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal
• Competency in MS Office applications
• Education to A/S Level or equivalent and above
• A logical, solution-focused mindset
