Job description:

Govern the project wrapper for a defined batch of work

• Provide project governance for clearly defined work, typically requiring coordination across one or two delivery teams.

• Ensure the project is governed through the correct channels and with the appropriate level of discipline.

• Function as the primary coordination point for business stakeholders throughout the delivery lifecycle.

2) Create and maintain a unified view of scope, schedule, and cost

• Maintain an integrated view of scope, schedule, cost, assumptions, dependencies, and delivery commitments across participating teams.

• Partner with the Portfolio Management Team to track budget and cost for non-labor spend and provide visibility of project-related work flowing through long-lived teams.

• Actively manage cost and budget for temporary teams organized around the project scope where required.

3) Facilitate intake, framing, and routing

• Coordinate project intake and framing through standard governance channels.

• Engage Agile Teams, ARTs, Platform Owners, Product Owners, and accountable parties based on how the scope will be delivered.

• Do not approve or prioritize intake directly unless explicitly delegated. 4) Coordinate dependencies, risks, issues, and decisions

• Maintain an integrated view of project dependencies, risks, issues, decisions, owners, due dates, and escalation paths.

• Escalate when progress stalls, ownership is unclear, or decisions exceed team authority. 5) Work effectively with long-lived Agile Teams and ARTs

• Work within existing governance, tooling, and delivery methods.

• Respect the governance boundaries of Scrum Masters, RTEs, Platform Owners, Product Owners, System Architects, and delivery teams.

• Build project-level views around standing structures rather than replacing them. 6) Coordinate readiness, milestones, release, and cutover

• Coordinate kickoff meetings, status reviews, milestone, release, cutover, transition, and handoff readiness.

• Collaborate with Program Managers on integrated readiness and governance where the project is part of a wider program.

• Collaborate with communication teams for deployment communications and stakeholder notifications. 7) Support incremental and iterative delivery

• Encourage sequencing that enables earlier validation, feedback, and value delivery where practical.

• Coordinate staged releases with accountable owners and delivery teams. 8) Provide reporting and stakeholder visibility

• Communicate integrated status across scope, schedule, cost, dependencies, risks, issues, decisions, and readiness.

• Support steering forums and governance reviews with a clear view of delivery reality and decisions required.

• Support lessons learned and process improvement opportunities. 9) Work across organizational boundaries

• Coordinate across I&O, other National Grid teams, external vendors, and delivery partners.

• Ensure external dependencies and contributors are represented in project governance and readiness planning1) Govern the project wrapper for a defined batch of work
