**About the Role**
The Central Project Management Office is ‘mission control’ of all project-related activity here at Drax, with a particular focus on allowing us to optimally coordinate the strategic and transformation programmes that are essential to delivering its strategy

This is a highly visible role leading on the prioritisation, scoping, structuring and execution of a portfolio of projects to support new initiatives and business processes cross functionally, ensuring alignment with our group sustainability strategy and Central PMO governance. You’ll ensure assigned project leads follow consistent governance and drive multiple projects to the agreed time, cost and quality standards set out by Central PMO.

In this new and exciting role, you’ll work with our Chief Sustainability Officer, Head of Decarbonisation and Head of Central PMO to develop a portfolio of change for Sustainability across Drax.

Day to day you’ll lead on the development of the sustainability roadmap for change and business planning including budgetary requirements and manage the expenditure of the budget across the year and report on progress against the Sustainability change plan at Group level.

Experience of developing delivery methodologies and standards to suit the nature of the business would also be desirable in this role.

Methodical and Process-oriented; you’ll be analytical; innovative and adaptive in a fast-paced environment and you’ll be both a good technical communicator and storyteller for less specialist audiences.
