Description

Wellcome is a global charitable foundation. We improve health for everyone by funding science, leading policy and advocacy campaigns, and building partnerships.

We plan to spend £16bn over the next ten years, funding new discoveries in life, health and wellbeing, and taking on three global health challenges: mental health, infectious disease and climate.

These challenges need the bold research our funding supports, but they won't be solved by science alone.

We are looking for two Portfolio Officers to support both the delivery of our portfolio's projects and programmes, and the development of the wider functions and services that enable the portfolio.

Where in Wellcome will I be working?

This role is part of the Portfolio Management Office (PMO) team that sits within Wellcome's Digital and Technology operation. The PMO enables the delivery of Digital and Technology-related projects and programmes for Wellcome.

In this role you will:

• Own the coordination of PMO operational activities
• Facilitate the creation and update of project or programme plans as required by the portfolio and / or project or programme, identifying where cross-project ownership exists and track/monitor these in support of the project or programme manager
• Implement the established regular progress reporting mechanisms for the portfolio's projects and programmes and monitor the progress of projects and programmes, including assisting the project and programme managers in the preparation of reports
• Provide co-ordination / administration services to projects or programmes
• Provide a helpdesk facility and act as a first point of contact for PMO related enquiries/issues/problems, document and template requests, advice and guidance and requests for assistance, assigning them to relevant PMO team members and track the requests to resolution
• Maintain the PMO's SharePoint site including the PMO Playbook, standards, currency reviews and create content
• Assist the resource management roles with the acquisition of resources by maintaining relationships with suppliers and other external agencies that provide resource including training and equipment and management of Purchase Orders and Invoices
• Provide administrative assistance for other PMO related activities
