Grants Compliance & Project Management Consultant (Post-Award)

What are you going to do?
-----------------------------

You will help clients successfully manage funded projects throughout their implementation, translating funding requirements into practical and effective project management approaches.

Working alongside experienced PNO consultants, you will progressively take ownership of projects and client relationships while developing your expertise across different European and national funding programmes.

• Support clients in the implementation and day\-to\-day management of European and national funded projects across different funding and management models.


• Interpret funding rules, Grant Agreements and programme requirements, translating them into practical guidance for clients and project teams.


• Plan and monitor project activities, resources, milestones, deliverables, deadlines, budgets and reporting obligations.


• Coordinate project implementation with clients, consortium partners, internal teams, funding authorities and Project Officers.


• Support administrative and financial project management, including reporting, supporting documentation, cost eligibility and other programme\-specific requirements.


• Identify project and compliance risks and advise clients on practical solutions to ensure effective and compliant project delivery.


• Analyse and improve clients' grant management processes, methodologies, governance and internal procedures.


• Support amendments, reviews, audits and other post\-award processes throughout the project lifecycle.
