Milton Keynes Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom National Energy Foundation Full time

Job Type: Full time Fixed Term 12 months
The National Energy Foundation
The National Energy Foundation is an independent charity based in Milton Keynes, which has been at the forefront of improving the use of energy in buildings since 1988. We aim to give people, organisations and government the knowledge, support and inspiration they need to understand, manage and reduce the use of energy in buildings.
Our Project Managers are fundamental to the successful leadership and delivery of NEF’s programmes and projects. You will be responsible for the oversight of one or more projects, which will include leading a NEF team to deliver excellent results to funders, customers and important stakeholders. You will likely be leading projects in any one of our work streams, which could include leading projects concerned with fuel poverty, engaged people and those keen to improve the energy efficiency of their home as a part of whole home retrofit approach.
Our Project Managers need to be highly organised, proactive and comfortable managing people. This could include contract review meetings, funder events, conferences and other stakeholder engagement events. Whilst this role is very much about communication and people, you’ll also need exemplary organisational skills and understand how to implement and lead projects from inception to successful completion.
This job would be suitable for a candidate without previous formal experience of project management provided they have the right level of experience in our industry and have an excellent ‘can do’ attitude and willingness to take responsibility for delivering good project outcomes and satisfied clients.
Lead project delivery, managing a team of one or more internal staff (and when the need arises, one or more external contractors), overseeing day-to-day project requirements, reporting on KPIs and inputting into future project strategy.
Accountable for delivering successful projects, potentially across any one of NEF’s core strands, including comprehensive recording of costs, allocated resources, time spent and income obtained. Maintain accurate financial records (and process invoices) where required and ensure that your projects are delivered within budget and on time.
Provide inspirational leadership to the delivery team and staff under your line management, ensuring team members have clear objectives, regular reviews, personal development plans and day-to-day guidance and support.
Feed into the development (and improvement) and manage a range of systems and processes, including relevant CRM systems and/or databases.
Provide overall project oversight to senior members or staff and/or external stakeholders, through regular reports and analysis.
Champion the NEF Quality Management Systems (QMS) and ensure good operating practice is embedded into your team.
Lead project steering groups, driving the direction of projects and ensuring projects are delivered successfully, ensuring everyone on your team is cognisant of the aims of the project.
Be actively engaged in recruitment exercises and provide training, mentoring and support to delivery staff, both at the commencement of their role and ongoing.
Contribute fully to NEF’s business development direction, as well as delivering existing projects.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills with the ability to represent NEF at external events, deliver training and write project reports.
A good understanding of Project Management within our sector and excellent knowledge of at least two of the following:
project management tools
The ability to lead, engage, challenge, inspire and support a team of internal staff and external contractors.
High levels of emotional intelligence.
Highly organised, with a methodical approach to projects and a keen eye for detail.
Ability and willingness to travel. Regular travel to events is a feature of the job.
Ability to work outside of office hours, by arrangement.
Familiarity with Microsoft Office Outlook, Excel, Word, Office 365 and Dynamics 365.
Possession of a full UK driving license and use of a car with business insurance cover.
