- Planning and Scheduling: Support Senior Portfolio Managers to monitor milestones, progress and dependencies across the Portfolio.
- Benefits Management: Support with tracking benefits across the Portfolio.
- Working with others: Build strong effective and credible working relationships across the portfolio and wider Scottish Government to aid delivery.
