What you will be doing
- Owns delivery of the assigned project or work package — defining scope, outputs and acceptance criteria and achieving the committed time, cost and quality position.
- Maintains the integrated delivery plan — connecting activities, milestones, dependencies, resources and decision points.
- Controls delivery and risk — keeping scope, schedule, cost, quality, change and decision records current, identifying deviation early and leading recovery or escalation.
- Coordinates cross-functional contributors — clarifying ownership and resolving interfaces within the assigned scope.
- Provides clear stakeholder insight — leading progress reviews and presenting concise status, forecasts, options and decisions required.
- Connects project delivery to programme outcomes — managing dependencies and providing reliable information on progress, risk and contribution to benefits.
- Applies and improves common project-management practice — sharing learning across the Portfolio Office between deployments.
Who we are looking for

- Working knowledge of scope, schedule, cost, quality, risk, change, governance, communications and project controls, applied through recognised project-management methods.
- Strong organisation, analysis and stakeholder-coordination skills, with the judgement to identify issues early and distinguish between owned action and escalation.
- An adaptable individual contributor who can move between assignments, build effective relationships quickly and maintain consistent professional standards across different project environments.
