* Running RAID like a pro — identifying risks early, managing issues, and driving mitigations with urgency
* Working hand-in-hand with the business, SMEs and technology teams
* Managing several small-to-medium changes simultaneously — often shifting, reprioritising, and evolving
* Leading stakeholder communication with clear, concise, senior-ready updates
* Removing blockers quickly, ensuring teams maintain momentum
* Embedding governance and change discipline across all project activity
* Driving continuous improvement through structured lessons learned
* Tracking progress against time, cost and outcomes, ensuring benefits are clear and measurable
* Coordinating readiness, business impacts and BAU adoption for smooth transitions into live service

* A strong analytical mindset, able to simplify complex information quickly
* Proficiency with MS Project, SharePoint, Excel, Visio (JIRA beneficial)
* Someone calm, proactive and self-directed, who brings stability and momentum even under pressure
