• Work across business areas and teams to ensure requirements are understood and translated into achievable outcomes.
• Support implementation planning and readiness activity to help changes land successfully.
• Maintain appropriate project controls, risks, issues and dependencies to support effective delivery.
• Provide clear progress updates and insight to Project Managers and senior stakeholders.

• Around 5+ years' experience working across project, change or transformation environments.
• Strong requirements gathering and requirements writing experience.
• Experience supporting or delivering operating model / future-state design activity.
• Strong implementation planning and delivery experience.
• Experience mobilising and managing project workstreams.
• Ability to take requirements and translate them into structured, deliverable pieces of work.
