PMO Portfolio Analyst Full-time, permanent 45,000 per annum Remote-first, with occasional travel to London or Yorkshire Are you a proactive Portfolio Analyst who enjoys turning complex delivery information into clear, useful insight? You will join a central PMO and delivery function, supporting a high-profile change portfolio in a complex, regulated environment. You will help Sponsors, Executives, Change Committee and Board-level stakeholders understand progress, risks, dependencies, resources and financials, giving them the confidence to make timely, evidence-based decisions. This role is ideal for someone who is analytical, organised and self-starting; someone who takes ownership, spots issues early, follows through on actions and brings structure and clarity to fast-moving change delivery. What you will do You will join a social housing organisation to produce high-quality portfolio reports, dashboards and analysis, translating complex data into concise insight that highlights trends, exceptions, risks and emerging issues. You will maintain forward-looking views of portfolio activity, milestones, dependencies and cross-programme impacts, helping to identify conflicts, bottlenecks and sequencing risks before they affect delivery. You will work closely with Programme Delivery Managers, Sponsors and PMO colleagues to validate resource demand, capacity assumptions and delivery constraints. You will support governance forums through accurate pack preparation, documentation, follow-up and maintenance of key portfolio artefacts, including risks, actions and decisions. You will help improve PMO tools, templates, reporting standards and data quality, identifying opportunities to simplify, automate and reduce manual effort. What you will bring Experience of working within Social Housing/Housing Association. You will have experience in a PMO, portfolio, programme or project environment, with a good understanding of delivery governance and change management principles. You will be confident working with data, using Excel and management information to structure, cleanse, analyse and interpret complex information. You will be able to produce clear, insight-led reporting for senior stakeholders, telling the story behind the data rather than simply presenting numbers. You will be highly organised, able to manage multiple priorities independently and comfortable working in a remote-first environment. You will be proactive, curious and delivery-focused, with the confidence to ask questions, challenge inconsistencies, follow up actions and escalate risks early. Experience with Power BI, Power Query, SharePoint or portfolio management tools would be helpful, but your analytical mindset, attention to detail and ability to bring clarity are most important. Why join? You will join a collaborative PMO and delivery team where your insight will directly influence how change is understood, prioritised and delivered. You will work remotely as standard, with occasional travel to London or York for team meetings, stakeholder sessions and key governance activity.
