Role Overview and Purpose
Sitting within our newly formed PMO Team, the Resource Manager ensures successful delivery by aligning the right people, skills, and capacity to competing organisational priorities. Acting as the bridge between planning and execution, they support resource allocation based on skills, balance competing demands, and mitigate risks caused by constraints. By providing visibility of resource availability and cost implications, the Resource Manager enables informed decision-making at our key governance gates, ensuring projects are feasible, sustainable, and delivered on time and within budget.
