• Produce clear meeting notes and ensure agreed actions are communicated and progressed.
• Identify and monitor basic risks, issues and dependencies, escalating where appropriate.
• Assist with project and commercial reporting.
• Ensure all necessary information, approvals, designs and documentation are in place before projects are handed over to the operational team.
• Manage routine tasks with limited supervision and take ownership of progressing projects.
• Support the wider team with administrative and coordination activities as required.
