SalaryThe Project Support Analyst (known internally as the PPMO Analyst) will provide data and analysis capability to the Project and Programme Management Office (PPMO). You’ll lead the development and implementation of a range of data driven services, processes and outputs that will strengthen and empower expert delivery across the National Trusts project and programme portfolio.
This is an exciting time to be joining the wider Planning, Project and Programme Centre of Excellence (CoEx) team as we embark on significant steps to improve the way we do things – including implementation of a new software platform to modernise planning and project management, a new framework for programme management as well as exploring opportunities to take advantage of AI in the future.
This role is a part time permanent over 30hours. The Full Time Equivalent for this role is £35,724 with a Pro-Rata salary of £28,579.

What you'll be doing You’ll develop insight and analysis that will help us improve the way we deliver projects and programmes, the way we make decisions and the way we demonstrate our success.
You’ll do this by working closely with individuals and teams across the organisation, employing your knowledge and experience to help us develop changes that really have a positive impact.
You will be responsible for drafting concise and engaging papers that use data to inspire the organisation to learn and respond to the challenges of project and programme delivery.
