This role suits someone who brings robust coordination discipline, confidence operating in governance settings, and the ability to keep teams aligned across planning, reporting, risk/issues, and contract-related activities.

You’ll work closely with project leadership and delivery teams to ensure priorities are clear, progress is visible, and project controls are embedded and consistently maintained.

- Support governance rhythms including status reporting and preparation of steering materials
- Track and manage RAID (risks, actions, issues, dependencies) and elevate when required
- Support procurement/contract administration processes, including documentation, variations, and vendor coordination
- Assist with project planning activities such as feasibility inputs, cost planning support, and readiness tracking
- Build stakeholder clarity through structured communication, RACI-style responsibility alignment, and timely updates

- Solid understanding of construction/infrastructure or facilities project lifecycles (planning to handover)
- Confidence supporting contracts administration / superintendent-style processes (or closely partnering with those functions)
- Strong written communication—able to produce clear updates, packs, registers, and decision documentation
- A structured approach to planning, reporting, and quality assurance in fast-moving environments
