The role will involve taking ownership of defined workstreams, contributing to technical governance, guiding multidisciplinary coordination and helping ensure that risks, assumptions, interfaces and opportunities are clearly understood and managed. You will also support client engagement, technical approvals and the development of trusted, collaborative working relationships.
