Job description

The Connectivity Tool programme delivers a digital platform that enables public bodies and built-environment professionals to analyse connectivity, transport access and spatial data to support policy development and investment decisions.

As a Project Manager (HEO), you will work within a multidisciplinary digital delivery team to support the Senior Project Delivery Manager, Product Manager and Service Owner. You will be responsible for maintaining project controls, coordinating delivery activity, supporting Agile ways of working and ensuring governance processes are consistently followed.

You will play a key role in enabling delivery at pace by owning core delivery processes, maintaining accurate delivery data, and ensuring transparency across the team. You will proactively identify risks and support the team in resolving them.

You will also play an important role in supporting the Product Owner by managing backlog information, preparing sprint artefacts, organising user stories and ensuring high-quality product documentation is maintained.

Your responsibilities will include, but arent limited to:

Maintain project plans, schedules and delivery trackers for Connectivity Tools workstreams.
Maintain RAID logs (Risks, Assumptions, Issues and Dependencies) and track mitigation actions, escalating issues where appropriate.
Coordinate governance activities, including preparing papers, producing decision records and arranging meetings.
Support financial tracking, procurement activity and resource coordination

For further information on the role, please read the role profile which is for information purposes only - whilst all elements are relevant to the role, they may not all be assessed during the recruitment process. This job advert will detail exactly what will be assessed during the recruitment process.

Person specification

Qualifications:

Knowledge of project delivery frameworks such as PRINCE2, APM or Agile methodologies or willing to work towards these qualifications.

To be successful in this role you will need to have the following experience:

Strong organisational and coordination skills within a project or delivery environment.
Experience supporting Agile delivery environments, including sprint cycles, stand-ups, retrospectives and backlog maintenance.
Ability to support a Senior Project Delivery Manager by preparing delivery artefacts, managing documentation and maintaining accurate delivery information.
Experience supporting governance, risk and issue management processes.
Strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to work with technical and non-technical audiences.
Confidence using digital tools to gather, analyse and present delivery information

Additional Information

The successful candidate must either hold or be willing to work towards the Government Project Delivery Accreditation once in role.

Working hours, office attendance and travel requirements

Full time roles consist of 37 hours per week.

Whilst we welcome applications from those looking to work with us on a part time basis, there is a business requirement for the successful candidate to be able to work at least 35 hours per week.

This role is suitable for hybrid working, which is a non-contractual arrangement where a combination of workplace and home-based working can be accommodated subject to business requirements.

The expectation at present is a minimum of 60% of your working time a month will be spent at either your designated workplace (one of the locations cited in the advert) or, when required for business reasons, in another office/work location/visiting stakeholders. Your designated workplace will be your contractual place of work. There may be occasions where you are required to attend above the minimum expectation.

Occasional travel to other offices will be required, which may involve overnight stays.

If you have a question about hybrid working, part time/job share hours, flexible working, travelling for work, or require a reasonable adjustment, please contact the Vacancy Holder during the recruitment process to avoid possible disappointment later in the process should your working arrangements not be compatible with the requirements of the role (see below for contact details).
