  • Translate customer requirements and delivery plans into clear tasks, milestones, and tracking artefacts.
  • Coordinate activities across cross‑functional teams, including Professional Services, Product, Engineering, and Customer Success.
  • Maintain programme artefacts such as delivery plans, RAID logs, status reports, and customer updates.
  • Identify delivery risks, issues, and dependencies, escalating with clear context and recommendations.
  • Support customer communications and delivery governance activities.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of delivery practices, tools, and templates while developing domain expertise.

  • Foundational experience in programme, project, or delivery roles.
  • Strong organisational, planning, and coordination skills.
  • Ability to manage tasks independently within defined scope.
  • Ability to manage multiple streams of work in parallel and prioritise accordingly.
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills.
  • Comfort working in customer‑facing or delivery‑oriented environments.

Preferred

  • Experience supporting customer delivery or Professional Services engagements.
  • Familiarity with programme or project management methodologies and tools (experience in SmartSheet preferred).
  • Demonstrated interest in developing a specialism in programme or customer delivery management.
