About the role
You will work alongside project managers to keep planning and decision records useful. The work focuses on project dependencies, acceptance criteria and proposed changes, preparing the information a project manager needs before updating a delivery commitment.
What you will do
- Maintain the project schedule and dependency log with the project manager, checking updates against confirmed delivery information.
- Collect evidence for progress reports and identify work that is blocked, awaiting review or missing acceptance criteria.
- Prepare change notes that describe the request, affected tasks, open questions and decisions needed before the plan is revised.
- Coordinate review and acceptance meetings and check that the required evidence and decision owners are available.
- Maintain risk, approval and handover records and follow up on the next action agreed by the project manager.
What you should bring
- Practical task planning, organised documentation, and clear communication with different contributors.
- Understanding of milestones, dependencies, and acceptance criteria in a digital project.
- Ability to support delivery without making unapproved promises about scope, price, or deadlines.
Examples of work in this role
- An updated schedule and dependency log that distinguish confirmed dates from assumptions.
- A reviewed status, risk or change note that gives the project manager a clear decision to resolve.
Working arrangements
- Keep decisions, progress, and blockers visible through agreed communication channels.
- Reporting lines, decision authority, working hours, equipment needs, and location eligibility will be discussed during recruitment.
- Compensation, employment terms, and any benefits will be agreed during recruitment.
What to include in your application
- Include your CV, availability, and a short explanation of why this work interests you.
- Share a redacted project plan, dependency log or change note. Explain how you would assess a blocked dependency, gather the missing information and present it to the project manager.
- Remove confidential information from samples and share only work you have permission to disclose.
