Programme & Project Delivery.

Programme Managers are responsible for managing teams delivering a number of interrelated projects, translating strategic business objectives into measurable outcomes & deliverables. Portfolio Managers are responsible for managing and leveraging the lifecycle of investments, strategic initiatives, programmes, projects & outcomes to optimally achieve enterprise goals and objectives.

Business Analysts work on broad business and technology projects, focusing on the context of business improvements or system changes. They run workshops, gather & document business requirements, develop user stories and provide insight into business needs. Systems Analysts are much more technology focused, working on system or application technical changes, enhancements or upgrades.

Project Managers design, plan and execute technology & business change projects while holding accountability for ensuring successful delivery end to end. They allocate project resources, manage financial spend within budget constraints, ensure project milestones are met within agreed timelines and keep stakeholders fully informed on progress throughout the full project delivery lifecycle.

Change Managers ensure technology or business projects meet required objectives by increasing adoption and use by those who are impacted.  These initiatives typically include a combination of people change, structural change & technology change. Change Managers design & execute change plans that include all communications, implementation paths & timelines. They work to maximise usage & minimise resistance.

Project Coordinators maintain & monitor project plans, project schedules, budgets & expenditures and work closely with Project or Programme Managers. They organise, attend & participate in stakeholder meetings, documenting & following up on tasks, actions and decisions. Project Administrators assist with other administrative functions such as coordinating schedules, setting up meetings, preparing reports and other admin tasks.

A Project Management Office (PMO) Manager is responsible for setting all the policies, processes & frameworks that govern establishment, management and controls for all portfolios, programmes or individual projects. A PMO Analyst gathers relevant project data, monitors progress, develops project status reports for senior management & investment committees and completes all project governance documentation.
