Assistant Project Manager
We are seeking an organised and proactive Assistant Project Manager to support the successful delivery of projects from planning through to completion. This role is suited to someone who enjoys coordinating people, processes and resources, and who can build effective working relationships with colleagues, clients, contractors and suppliers. You will assist with maintaining project momentum, ensuring activities are delivered safely, on time, within budget and to the required quality standards.
Key responsibilities will include supporting the preparation of project plans, programmes, budgets, reports and risk registers; monitoring progress against agreed milestones; coordinating meetings and recording actions; maintaining accurate project documentation; and assisting with the management of change controls, procurement and resource requirements. You will help identify potential risks, issues and dependencies, escalating concerns promptly and supporting the implementation of appropriate solutions. The role will also involve liaising with internal and external stakeholders, tracking deliverables, reviewing information and contributing to project reviews and lessons-learned activities. Where required, you may support site visits, inspections and contractor coordination.
Applicants should have experience in project coordination, project administration or a related environment, with a good understanding of project management principles and delivery processes. Strong organisational and time-management skills are essential, along with excellent written and verbal communication abilities. You should be confident using Microsoft Office and project management or reporting systems, and be comfortable working with schedules, budgets, data and documentation. The successful candidate will be detail-focused, dependable and able to manage competing priorities while remaining calm under pressure. A relevant qualification in project management, business, construction, engineering, information technology or a comparable discipline is desirable, as is experience working towards a recognised project management qualification. A collaborative approach, positive attitude and willingness to learn are essential.
