• Strong project management capability, with experience applying planning, scheduling, risk management, governance and controls.
• Experience operating across multiple phases of the lifecycle, particularly campaigns, new Business proposals and early solution development.
• Strong commercial and financial awareness, with the ability to balance cost, schedule, risk and value.
• Excellent stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence and engage senior leaders and cross-functional teams.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including experience presenting to customers and executive stakeholders.
• Resilience and confidence operating in high-pressure, time-critical environments.

Skills:

• Advanced MS Office skills (Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Power BI), plus familiarity with MS Project or similar
