Pipeline management will be another critical aspect, where you will ensure that the flow of projects is well-organised and prioritised. Additionally, you will handle resource allocation, demand, and capacity planning to ensure that projects have the necessary resources to be completed efficiently.


Maintaining accurate project data in the PPM system will be essential, as well as conducting regular check-ins and project health checks to monitor ongoing progress. You will manage finance trackers to keep a close eye on project budgets and expenditures.

Advanced Excel skills are essential for this role. You should be comfortable with Nested IF Statements, pivot tables, and XLookups. Proficiency in VBA is highly desirable, as it will enable you to automate and streamline processes effectively.
