Job description

The Project support officer is expected to provide vital assistance to the project manager and coordinator.

As a project support officer, you won’t only perform routine administrative duties like minute taking – rather, your responsibilities will be inextricably tied to the success of the project you are working on. Driving everything forward from planning to implementation, your actions will directly influence the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of the project.

Every project is different and therefore your duties will change accordingly. However, for the most part, you will be responsible for monitoring project schedules and budgets, preparing progress reports, and liaising with key stakeholders.

As the project coordinator’s assistant, you will play an important role in project planning and risk and issue management. Moreover, you will log, manage and analyze information on the progress of the project, using Excel and other bespoke databases. You may even be responsible for managing lower-level administrative support staff.

Provide more information on the scope of operations of the NGO and the specific functions. People should know what they're getting into. Full disclosure is the name of the game. Many thanks.
