About the Role
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Programme Coordinator looking to take the next step towards a Project Manager career path, or for a Junior Project Manager who enjoys hands-on programme coordination and delivery support.
The role is responsible for supporting the successful delivery of complex transformation programmes through effective planning, scheduling, coordination, governance, reporting, and delivery management.

You will play a key role in identifying emerging risks, issues, and dependencies, ensuring they are appropriately managed and escalated.

It is ideally suited to someone who is highly organised, analytical, and eager to develop their project and programme management capabilities in a structured and complex delivery environment.
Success in this role requires strong coordination and planning skills, the ability to manage multiple priorities, excellent stakeholder engagement, and a proactive approach to supporting programme outcomes. This position provides a clear platform for career growth into Project Management while remaining actively involved in the day-to-day coordination and successful delivery of strategic programmes.
