Role Overview
We are seeking a Project Controller to join the Enterprise Advisory Services (EAS) team and support large-scale transformation and integration projects across Europe. This role is ideal for a structured, detail-oriented communicator with strong organizational skills and foundational project-management knowledge. You will work closely with Project Managers, Architects, and technical delivery teams to maintain project governance, documentation accuracy, scheduling, reporting, and coordination across multiple workstreams. This is a project coordination and control role, not a senior PM position — perfect for someone who excels at creating structure in fast-paced environments and keeping programs on track.
Project Coordination & Governance
- Maintain project schedules, RAID logs, task trackers, and reporting dashboards.
- Support Project Managers and Program Leads with planning activities across multiple teams.
- Ensure governance processes are followed, including updates, documentation, and change controls.
- Coordinate cross-functional activities with technical teams, customer stakeholders, and vendors.
Documentation & Reporting
- Prepare status reports, meeting minutes, action logs, risk summaries, and milestone updates.
- Maintain structured document repositories and version‑controlled project files.
- Assist in preparing customer‑facing presentations and executive summaries.
- Capture and track decisions, issues, and next steps across program workstreams.
Stakeholder Coordination
- Organize meetings, workshops, and cadence calls across geographically distributed teams.
- Facilitate clear communication between EAS, customers, and internal engineering groups.
- Support preparation of agendas, pre‑read materials, and follow‑up documentation.
Financial & Administrative Support
- Track project hours, budgets, burn rates, and financial forecasts.
- Assist with invoice validation, time‑entry accuracy, and allocation tracking.
- Identify cost variances and elevate risks to PMO leadership.
M&A Program Support
- Assist in tracking Day‑1, Day‑30, and Day‑90 integration activities.
- Maintain synergy trackers, cross‑company communication logs, and integration plans.
- Support coordination across multiple merging entities or technical workstreams.
Continuous Improvement
- Contribute to template development, reporting enhancements, and PMO process improvements.
- Support knowledge transfer and ensure smooth transitions across project phases.
- Help implement consistency and structure across all EAS‑led engagements.
Required Skills
- Excellent written and spoken English and German.
- Strong organizational, documentation, and coordination skills.
- Ability to work effectively in a fast‑paced enterprise environment.
- Strong communication skills and comfort working with multiple teams.
- Experience with collaboration tools (Teams, SharePoint, Jira/Confluence, or similar).
Project Management Knowledge
- Foundational understanding of PMBOK or similar frameworks.
- Familiarity with RAID logs, milestone tracking, change control, and governance structures.
- Experience supporting IT, consulting, or integration projects preferred (not required).
Nice to Have
- M&A program experience or exposure.
- Strong Excel/reporting skills.
- Additional European languages.
