That's where our Project Management team shines. They deliver projects end-to-end, considering every single detail to deliver quality on time and on budget.

Delivering results as a team

Turning designs into reality

It all matters.

Keep records and reporting working for critical projects

As a Project Control Officer, you'll help keep projects compliant and financially on track. Working closely with Project Managers and project teams, ensure financial processes are followed, provide timely information, and maintain accurate, accessible project records. Support financial reporting to customers, ensuring documentation is completed accurately and meets both internal and external deadlines.

Communication and attention to detail are central to the role. Liaise with customers, suppliers and finance teams to resolve queries, exchange financial information and support informed decision-making across projects. Manage project folders, produce minutes for formal review meetings, maintain management information for colleagues, and oversee requisitions and purchase orders from raising through to receipting and closure. By taking a customer-focused approach, you'll help projects run smoothly while maintaining the high standards expected across FCDO Services.

Bring accuracy to work that depends on control

You'll bring experience of project assurance, quality control and risk management, together with a sound understanding of programme and project management processes. Apply strong attention to detail when working with project financials, ensuring procedures are followed and information is accurate. Analyse data, identify trends and inconsistencies, and produce clear reports that support decision-making and help projects stay on track.

You are organised, motivated and able to work well without close supervision, all while still being a strong communicator who builds good relationships across the team. You’ll be comfortable working with Project Managers, senior stakeholders and wider colleagues, helping keep project processes on track and making sure information is shared clearly and at the right time. APM, PRINCE2 or equivalent would be useful, as would experience in government and large organisations.
