You will ensure that accurate information is input to SAP PS and other relevant tools to ensure that demand is properly driven through the MRP system and that engineering drawings and specifications are available on time to support other organisation functions. Liaising with other functional areas (Quality, Supply Chain etc.) you will ensure the timely resolution of project issues.

Through effective communication with the IPT and the Programme Office, you will ensure that change management is implemented as necessary to minimise the adverse effects of change on programme performance and customer relationships. You will be actively involved in the department's resource management process to enable appropriate and available personnel to be effectively shared across programmes.
