I assisted the Project Manager in delivering planned and unplanned maintenance as well as Capability Insertions for HMS Prince of Wales.I set priorities and resolved problems for our planning, scheduling, procurement and engineering teams. I was responsible for creating assumptions, exclusions and depencies as well as risks for projects and drawing down on these where appropriate. I was responsible for ensuring that change was planned for, costed and delivered during project delivery. I delivered daily briefs to Ship's Staff to inform them of progress and deconflict work.
