About the Role
Our client is seeking a proactive Control Account Manager (CAM) / Project Controls Coordinator to provide hands‑on support to the Enterprise Project Management (EPM) function. This role plays a key part in improving project execution by taking ownership of schedule updates, forecasting inputs, milestone tracking, and functional reporting.
This position is ideal for someone with solid project management/PMO experience who thrives in a delivery‑focused matrix environment and can bring structure, clarity, and momentum to complex workstreams.
Key Responsibilities
Project Controls & Tracking
- Support the EPM with milestone updates, schedule maintenance, and plan hygiene across assigned workstreams.
- Monitor progress against baselines and flag deviations, risks, and slippage trends.
- Drive timely updates from functional leads to maintain an accurate and current project picture.
Forecasting & Reporting
- Support weekly and monthly forecasting cycles, gathering ETC/EAC and progress data.
- Produce clear, concise function progress reports, status summaries, and variance insights.
- Assist with maintaining dashboards, trackers, and RAID‑related documentation.
DM (Document/Delivery/Dependency Management) Support
- Coordinate DM activities (Document, Delivery, or Dependency Management depending on project context).
- Maintain controlled documentation, action logs, and structured update processes.
General EPM Support
- Provide day-to-day support to relieve workload from the EPM function and improve execution efficiency.
- Prepare updates, meeting materials, and project artefacts as required.
- Follow through on actions to ensure momentum across workstreams.
Required Experience & Skills
- Proven experience in Project Controls, PMO, or junior-mid Project Management roles in an Agile environment.
- Strong organisational and follow-up skills with a proactive, delivery‑driven mindset.
- Able to independently track progress, chase updates, and maintain accuracy under time pressure.
- Competent with project tools (e.g., MS Projects, Project Online, or equivalent).
- High proficiency in Excel (tracking, variance analysis, updates) and PowerPoint (status reporting).
- Strong communication and stakeholder‑management capability.
- Experience working across multiple workstreams in a structured, governed project environment.
Desirable
- Experience within engineering, technical, defence or regulated environments.
- Understanding of Earned Value Management (EVM) concepts.
