Support the production of regular and ad hoc PMO reports, including weekly IT leadership reporting and Change Programme Board highlight reports.

Gate, TDA and meeting administration

Liaise with Project Managers, Programme Managers and delivery teams to gather accurate and timely reporting information.
Support budget tracking, project finance administration, resource data tracking and reconciliation activities where required.
Check numbers, codes, dates and supporting data against source information before submission or circulation.

Continuous improvement and audit readiness

Support continual improvement of PMO processes, templates, reporting routines and governance controls.
Identify recurring issues and propose practical improvements to maintain or improve quality, consistency and efficiency.
