What You'll Do
Security, Compliance and access management
- Maintain accurate records of team members’ access, onboarding status, and required checks (e.g. BPSS), ensuring information is current and reliable.
- Monitor upcoming expiries or gaps in access or compliance and flag these to the PMO team in a timely way.
- Support joiner, mover and leaver processes, ensuring access is requested, updated or removed in line with role changes.
- Work with internal teams (e.g. HR,IT) to follow through on access-related actions and keep records aligned.
- Develop an understanding of security and compliance expectations in a client environment and apply these consistently.
Onboarding and mobilisation:
- Coordinate key steps in the onboarding process, ensuring new joiners have the right equipment, system access, and information ahead of their start date.
- Maintain onboarding trackers and checklists, keeping status up to date and visible to the wider team.
- Proactively follow up on outstanding onboarding actions (e.g. access requests, equipment delivery) to avoid delays.
- Support a consistent onboarding experience by applying standard processes and identifying areas for improvement.
Onsite support:
- Be on site regularly to support the account team.

- Support practical on-site needs that help the team operate smoothly and professionally.
- Coordinate building access, passes and site onboarding with the client’s site management or facilities teams.
- Maintain an up-to-date view of who has access to which locations and resolve access issues quickly to avoid delivery disruption.
Delivery Governance:
- Maintain and update governance artefacts (e.g. internal RAID logs, trackers, milestone views), ensuring they are accurate, structured and easy to use.
- Gather updates from delivery teams and reflect these clearly in governance materials.
- Track risks, issues, actions and dependencies, ensuring they are visible and followed up.
- Support the preparation of governance packs and meeting materials, ensuring information is clear and complete.
- Identify gaps, inconsistencies or outdated information and take action to resolve them.
Account Management Support:
- Track staffing movements (joiners, leavers, role changes), ensuring records reflect the current view of the account.
- Support coordination of meetings (internal and client), including scheduling, materials, and action tracking.
- Maintain action logs, ensuring ownership is clear and follow-ups are captured and progressed.
- Help ensure key information (e.g.trackers, documents) is organised, accessible, and easy to navigate.
- Help ensure the right internal documentation is in place, including purchase orders, statements of work and related approvals.
- Begin to spot patterns or recurring issues (e.g. onboarding delays, recurring access gaps) and raise these with the PMO team.
- Work with internal teams to improve processes over time, reducing manual effort and delivery risk.
- Contribute ideas to improve ways of working, based on day-to-day experience of processes.
