**The role**:
As a Principal Project Officer, your role focuses on managing operational projects across the Strategic Services and Advice Group (SSA), ensuring that they align with broader organisational goals. You'll lead the development and delivery of communications and training strategies, manage complex projects, and coordinate key initiatives, including events and financial activities, to drive project success. This role is working closely within the Deputy Secretaries office and requires strong prioritisation and time management skills along with exceptional attention to detail.
Some key responsibilities include but are not limited to:
- Lead the strategic development and implementation of communication frameworks across SSA, ensuring alignment with broader departmental goals.
- Manage a diverse portfolio of complex, high-priority projects, from initial business case development to full-scale delivery, ensuring integration and synergy with departmental objectives.
- Develop robust tools for continuous project evaluation, risk management, and benefits realisation, ensuring successful project outcomes.
One of the key challenges you'll face is managing diverse stakeholder expectations, negotiating sensitive issues within tight deadlines, and working with limited resources while balancing competing priorities. Success in this role requires a proactive approach to project interdependencies and ensuring continuous monitoring and evaluation to achieve outcomes efficiently.
