To be successful in this role you will:

• be comfortable analysing information and providing recommendations in a format accessible to a wide range of audiences.
• be exceptionally organised to meet deadlines, prioritise your workload and thrive in a fast-paced environment working well as a team, or on your own.
• be confident communicating with people at all levels and able to facilitate groups.

The ideal candidate would excel at:

• Delivering project, programme or portfolio with knowledge of RAID management.
• Developing and establishing controls, tools and templates for RAID management.
• Having an understanding and experience of applying programme and project methodologies (for example, Prince2, MSP, Agile, Management of Risk etc.).
