About the Role 
We employ Portfolio, Programme and Project Management best practice principles using the industry standard MoP, PRINCE2 and MSP methodologies; however, this is a pragmatic implementation which is constantly evolving, continually improving processes and related documents to ensure relevance to the University.

About you
