The posting
PMO Analyst
Location: Remote, UK with travel across the business Contract: Fixed-Term Contract - 15 months
Make your impact
As a PMO Analyst, you’ll play a key role in supporting the delivery of important business transformation programmes across Weir, bringing structure, organisation and pace to a complex and fast-moving environment.
Working closely with our Business Transformation team, you’ll help establish and maintain the governance, reporting and coordination that keeps programmes moving forward. From bringing the right people together and following through on actions, to maintaining clear reporting and spotting dependencies before they become issues, you’ll help create the structure behind successful transformation.
This isn’t a role where you need to have followed a traditional PMO career path. We’re looking for someone proactive, organised and naturally curious, who is comfortable working with ambiguity, can build credibility with senior stakeholders and has the confidence to take something from “this needs done” to “this is done.”
What we do at Weir
We are a global leader in mining technology for a sustainable future. We help our customers extract the resources the world needs more efficiently and more sustainably. Our planet’s future depends on the transition to renewable energy, and that transition can only happen with the metals and minerals our customers deliver. So, we work side by side with mines across the globe to move less rock, use less energy, use water wisely, and create less waste. Together, we drive the shift to smart, efficient, and more sustainable mining.
What You’ll do:
- Programme Coordination & Delivery Support: Take a proactive, hands-on approach to supporting transformation programmes, coordinating meetings, actions, deliverables and programme information and making sure agreed activities are followed through to completion.
- Governance, Reporting & Organisation: Maintain high-quality programme reporting, documentation and trackers, bringing structure and discipline to programme information while ensuring it remains practical, accessible and up to date.
- Stakeholder & Executive Engagement: Build effective relationships across Weir and communicate confidently with stakeholders at all levels, including senior and executive leadership. Gather information, follow up on actions and constructively challenge when needed to maintain momentum.
- End-to-End Thinking & Problem Solving: Look beyond individual tasks to understand how activities, people and dependencies connect. Spot potential gaps, anticipate what is needed and use sound judgement to find practical ways forward.
- Programme Rhythm & Accountability: Help establish effective meetings, reporting and follow-up processes that provide visibility of progress and ensure commitments and deliverables remain on track.
- Business Transformation Support: Build your understanding of Weir and use that knowledge to help navigate the organisation effectively, supporting different programmes and priorities across our Business Transformation portfolio.
- Safety First: Demonstrate 100% commitment to our zero harm behaviours in support of our drive towards developing a world-class safety culture.
What you’ll bring
- Strong organisational and coordination skills, with experience managing multiple priorities in a fast-moving environment.
- Confidence engaging with stakeholders at different levels of an organisation, including senior leaders and executives.
- A proactive, hands-on approach, with the ability to see what needs to be done, take ownership and follow things through.
- The ability to work independently and comfortably navigate ambiguity, while recognising when collaboration or escalation is needed.
- Strong practical problem-solving skills and an ability to think end-to-end, connecting people, activities and dependencies rather than viewing tasks in isolation.
- Clear written and verbal communication skills, with good working knowledge of Excel and PowerPoint.
- A quick-learning, adaptable mindset and the curiosity to understand how different parts of a complex organisation work together.
- Experience in programme, project, PMO, business administration, transformation or a similar environment would be beneficial, but a traditional PMO background is not essential.
