You will be the first point of call for all project management issues with partners and be ready to trouble shoot and mitigate risks proactively with them. This may include close accompaniment and visits to the region. You will have delegated authority to take decisions that impact on project delivery and will be closely supported by the Lead: Programmes who will lead on the consortium and oversight of the portfolio of projects that make up the READY portfolio. Where appropriate, you may also be called on to support or lead other project delivery as part of a balanced portfolio of work.
