Ministry of Defence
This is an exciting time to join a newly forming portfolio office team with opportunity to shape the team and ways of working in a complex but priority area of Defence. We are recruiting for a Portfolio Planner & Resources Manager, who will work with all projects and programmes within the Portfolio to provide clarity on key milestones to define what, when and how activities will be organised, to ensure the Portfolio outcomes can be achieved, with the resources available. Define resources required for the portfolio at different lifecycle stages, and where appropriate, work with projects and programmes to identify and flex those resources to support successful delivery.
Experience of Portfolio management is not a pre-requisite, but the post-holder will need to be prepared to develop Portfolio management skills. They will also need to demonstrate technical competence at practitioner level in project and programme delivery.
Posts are likely to have line-management responsibility of at least one HEO civilian.
The post can be based in London Main Building or Portsmouth NCHQ, but with the expectation of regular travel between these sites, and occasional travel to other Defence locations including NB Clyde and Devonport.
Please note: Remote working within this role is something that may be discussed at interview stages or with your future line manager if you are found successful.
