You will work proactively with departments helping to monitor and maintain progress against agreed plans, primarily supporting the coordination of training and Ultra site building activities. Main duties will include: coordinating meetings, scheduling, monitoring and reporting on progress of tasks undertaken by site builders, agenda coordination, minute-taking, coordinating communications with a large range of stakeholders and updating project documentation.
