To be successful you’ll need  

Strong collaborator, able to gain the involvement and engagement of a wide range of stakeholders and customers, with ability to deal positively with conflicting priorities.  Ability to clarify and ensure understanding of strategies and solutions. Strong analytical skills, to develop, analyse and provide commentary on project plans and performance. Demonstrable understanding of project control processes. Experience of working in a fast paced, integrated project environment. Ideally you will have worked within the construction industry or have a working knowledge of the detailed processes to manage projects.
