Position Summary
The Programme Manager is responsible for leading programme management activities across the Data Centre business vertical, supporting the successful planning, execution, monitoring, and delivery of projects.
The role requires advanced, and preferably expert-level, proficiency in both Microsoft Project and Primavera P6, including full utilisation of programme management, scheduling, resource planning, and reporting functionality.
Working closely with internal and external stakeholders, the Programme Manager will develop, maintain, and optimise integrated construction programmes that align project objectives, milestones, resource requirements, and delivery strategies. The position is critical in ensuring accurate planning, effective progress monitoring, proactive risk management, and clear communication of programme performance throughout the project lifecycle.
This is a highly influential role requiring strong leadership, stakeholder management, and the ability to drive timely information exchange and accountability across multiple project teams.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop, manage, and maintain detailed project and programme schedules using Microsoft Project and Primavera P6.
- Create integrated construction programmes that accurately reflect project scope, sequencing, dependencies, milestones, and critical path activities.
- Collaborate with project teams, clients, consultants, subcontractors, and other stakeholders to establish and align programme requirements.
- Monitor project progress against baseline programmes and identify schedule risks, delays, and opportunities for recovery.
- Capture and analyse site progress data, providing accurate and timely programme updates.
- Develop and maintain resource-loaded programmes and support resource planning activities across multiple projects.
- Lead programme risk analysis and implement mitigation and recovery strategies where necessary.
- Produce high-quality programme reports, dashboards, and schedule performance metrics for internal and external stakeholders.
- Facilitate regular programme review meetings and drive stakeholders to provide accurate information and progress updates.
- Support project teams in forecasting key milestones, resource requirements, and project completion dates.
- Ensure programme controls and scheduling practices are consistently applied.
- Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives relating to planning, scheduling, reporting, and programme governance.
