Role Summary

Key Responsibilities

1. Project Governance & Artefacts

• Flag financial risks early and work with the Programme Manager on mitigation and forecasting
• Support commercial governance including change requests and scope-related cost impacts

4. Risk & Issue Management

• Own the RAID log end-to-end: identify, log, assess impact, assign owners, and drive closure
• Escalate appropriately to the Programme Manager with clear options and recommendations, not just problem statements

5. Stakeholder & Customer Management

• Act as the primary representative and all customer interactions at the project level
• Build and maintain trusted relationships with client project sponsors, workstream leads, and delivery counterparts
• Manage customer expectations proactively, ensuring transparency on progress, risks, and issues
