• Partner with the client PMO and delivery teams to tailor the project plan, governance approach, deliverables, and documentation to the client environment.
• Facilitate meetings, track actions and decisions, manage RAID logs, and help teams stay focused on the right priorities.
• Support change management coordination, delivery documentation, milestone evidence, and other project needs.
• Communicate early when scope, timing, budget, or stakeholder alignment needs attention.

Qualifications

A successful candidate will demonstrate:

• Strong ownership of day-to-day project delivery and follow-through.
• Clear communication with clients, technical teams, business stakeholders, and internal leaders.
• Practical problem-solving and the ability to bring order to complex or fast-moving work.
• Strong facilitation skills that help teams align, make decisions, and keep momentum.
• Comfort adapting to different client environments, project sizes, industries, stakeholder groups, and delivery methods.
• A learning mindset and openness to using tools, including AI, to improve delivery quality and efficiency.
