  • Prepare and present programme reports for internal and client stakeholders.
  • Ensure programmes align with project milestones, contract requirements, and delivery strategies.
  • Support change management and assess programme impacts associated with variations and compensation events.
  • Assist with tender planning and pre-construction scheduling activities.
  • Participate in project progress meetings and planning workshops.
