  • Liaising with TNA and the Parliamentary Digital Service to ensure Parliamentary data is portable and appropriately mapped to target systems at TNA, identifying and unblocking issues
  • Communicating progress and reporting to the Senior Project Manager to provide assurance on the preparation, delivery, effectiveness and efficiency within the project and its alignment with wider project/programme activity and plans
  • Collaborating with the Project/ARP Programme and Parliamentary Archive teams on designing and delivering systems and processes for future digital transfer, cataloguing and sensitivity review processes that will remain in Parliament.
  • Manage the work, performance, and development of team members.
  • Document and record project activity and the reasons for decisions, in a clear and consistent way.
  • If this sounds like something you would like to hear more about, please apply below.

    What we're looking for:

  • Excellent planning and prioritisation skills.
  • Excellent organisational skills and problem solving.
  • Experience of working on complex projects working with different stakeholders.
  • It would be even better if you had or if you're willing to learn...

  • Experience of leading projects in a Heritage environment.
  • Working knowledge of relevant project management methodologies e.g. PRINCE2 and/or Agile.
  • The job description provides full details about the role and what we are looking for.

    What you'll get in return:

  • 30 days annual leave (increasing to 35 after one years' service).
  • Generous pension scheme.
  • Discounts from well-known brands and retailers.
  • Parliamentary health and wellbeing programme.
  • The opportunity to witness history in the making

  • Make laws.
  • Check and challenge the actions of the government through questions and debates.
  • Investigate public policy and provide a forum of independent expertise.
  • Please complete your online application by 23:55 on Sunday 12th May 2024 .
