The role partners with project teams, portfolio offices, and governance stakeholders to promote adherence to enterprise standards, policies, procedures, and regulatory expectations.

The Analyst performs quality assurance and quality control reviews, maintains governance records and reports, administers EPMO tools and workflows, supports stakeholder inquiries and requests, and contributes to process improvements that enhance the effectiveness, consistency, and transparency of EPMO operations.

Operations & Administration

Key Responsibilities

• Execute governance activities in accordance with established frameworks, procedures, and controls.

• Manage governance-related requests, ticket queues, user access, and routine platform administration activities.

What This Role Isn't

This isn't a role where you're expected to have all the answers on day one. We're looking for someone who is curious, analytical, eager to learn, and comfortable navigating new challenges.

You don't need to be an AI expert to succeed in this position. An interest in technology and continuous improvement is more important than deep technical expertise.

While reporting, coordination, and governance activities are part of the role, this position goes beyond project administration. You'll have opportunities to solve problems, contribute ideas, influence outcomes, and support meaningful change across the organization.

This role is not limited to maintaining existing processes. You'll help improve how change management, project governance, reporting, and emerging technologies, including AI, are adopted across the enterprise.
