The Project Manager Role

The Project Manager is appointed by the Executive with approval from Corporate or Project Management. The Project Manager runs the project on behalf of the Project Board on a day-to-day basis and has the responsibility to produce the required products to the required quality within the specified time and cost.

There are many different facets to the role of project management, such as Communication – in fact, it is estimated that more than 70% of a project manager’s time is spent on Communication, but also on Cost Management, Quality, Product Status, Changes, User Needs, Monitoring and Planning.
