CCG is seeking an experienced Projectisation and Data Analysis professional to provide specialist expertise support to the Head of Portfolio and the Programme’s Operational Intelligence Framework (OIF) function. The CCG Projectisation and Data Analyst function is an integral component of the Programme. It is responsible for enhancing the Programme’s effectiveness through systematic project management (using the ClickUp project management tool) and providing projectisation support.

Furthermore, you will analyse and present programme performance data using a range of tools, including Microsoft Excel, ClickUp, and powerpoint. You will develop clear, concise, and audience-appropriate reports, dashboards, and presentations to communicate progress, identify emerging issues and trends, and support evidence-based decision-making across the Programme.
