What you'll be doing

You'll support the Lead Project Manager in planning and delivering project activities, making sure everything aligns with the overall programme goals. This includes helping to create clear strategies, keeping schedules on track, and ensuring that work is delivered safely, on time, and within budget.


You'll work closely with other teams to share knowledge, learn from experience, and apply best practices. Strong communication with stakeholders is key, as well as making sure all contract requirements are met and lessons learned are built into future work.

You'll have strong leadership and decision-making skills, especially in complex and regulated project environments.
