  • Proactively generate reports that illustrate the health of the portfolio, employing creative methods for data analysis and presentation.
  • Collaborate with the PMO team to create, maintain, and update relevant presentations and data sets for monthly meetings, including Executive SteerCo and Portfolio Governance overviews.
  • Engage actively with the Change team to support core project activities throughout the project lifecycle, including governance setup, project understanding, planning, resource management, and RAID management.
  • Provide guidance during early project phases to ensure clarity on project frameworks and governance requirements.
  • Oversee the maintenance of a central view of required and projected expenditures through engagement with business functions.
  • Regularly report on budget forecasts and identify opportunities for effective fund utilization.

  • Proven ability to build relationships and manage stakeholders effectively, providing sound advice, constructive challenges, and influencing decisions with well-structured data and insights.
  • Exceptional presentation skills, both in creating and delivering content.
  • A positive attitude is paramount; PMO qualifications are advantageous but not essential.
