Preparing clear status updates and reports for senior stakeholders
Working with the Change Manager to support communications to the wider business
Providing general project administration support (meetings, agendas, actions and follow-ups)

Skills you’ll need (minimum criteria)

Proven PMO or portfolio support experience, ideally within finance or transformation projects
Strong organisational skills with experience tracking plans, risks and progress
Confident using project tools (e.g. Jira, Smartsheet) and Google Suite

Clear and confident communicator, able to build strong working relationships
Calm and structured, even when working at pace or managing multiple deadlines
Strong attention to detail with an analytical mindset
Proactive and comfortable working independently
Practical and solutions-focused, not overly process-heavy
Comfortable challenging timelines or highlighting risks when needed
Collaborative approach, working effectively across Finance, HR and Tech
