Full job description

Assistant Project Manager

Help deliver projects that make a real difference

Are you an organised, proactive individual with a passion for project delivery? Do you enjoy bringing structure to complex work, collaborating with a wide range of stakeholders, and seeing projects through from concept to completion?

At CrossCountry, we're looking for an Assistant Project Manager to support the successful delivery of a diverse portfolio of projects that improve our business, enhance our trains, and deliver a better experience for our customers.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to build their career in project management, working alongside experienced professionals on high-profile fleet refurbishment and business improvement programmes.

What you'll be doing

As an Assistant Project Manager, you'll play an important role in ensuring projects are planned effectively, delivered efficiently, and governed to a high standard. You'll help keep projects on track by coordinating activities, monitoring progress, managing risks, and supporting effective communication across teams.

You'll also have the opportunity to take ownership of smaller projects and defined workstreams, giving you valuable hands-on experience while developing your project management skills.

Key responsibilities

Support the successful delivery of projects aligned to Department for Transport (DfT) contractual commitments and CrossCountry's Annual Business Plan.
Develop, maintain and monitor project plans, ensuring milestones, actions and deliverables remain on track.
Coordinate day-to-day project activities and ensure actions are clearly assigned, monitored and completed.
Prepare and present project updates through governance forums, including project and programme boards.
Identify, monitor and manage project risks, issues and dependencies, ensuring effective mitigation plans are in place.
Build positive relationships with stakeholders and support clear, consistent communication throughout the project lifecycle.
Facilitate collaboration across project teams, ensuring priorities, progress and next steps are understood.
Capture lessons learned and contribute to continuous improvement across future projects.
Lead smaller projects or individual workstreams from initiation through to successful completion.

What we're looking for

We're looking for someone who is enthusiastic, organised and eager to develop within a project management environment.

Ideally, you'll have:

Experience working within a project, programme or delivery environment.
Excellent organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities and maintain accurate documentation.
Experience planning, tracking and reporting project activities.
Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build effective working relationships at all levels.
A proactive approach to identifying and resolving risks and issues.
The ability to work independently while thriving in a collaborative team environment.
Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office, particularly Excel and PowerPoint (experience with Microsoft Project or similar software would be an advantage).

It would be great if you also have

Knowledge of the railway industry (although this isn't essential).
An interest in developing your project management career through recognised qualifications such as PRINCE2 or APM.

Why join CrossCountry?

This is an opportunity to work on projects that have a genuine impact on our business and the journeys of millions of customers across the UK.

In return, you'll benefit from:

If you're looking for a role where every project brings new challenges, opportunities to learn, and the chance to make a real difference, we'd love to hear from you.

Closing date for applications: 13 July 2026
