You will be expected to:

workstreams to agreed time, cost, quality, risk and benefit profiles, delivered
within Shell's standards and controls framework;
 Proactively analyse variances against plan to assess trends threatening agreed
scope, time, cost, and quality commitments. Identify signs that a project may
be at risk and take appropriate action;

or business change are fit for purpose, meet all relevant requirements and are
effectively transitioned to support and business-as-usual; and
 Ensure that the business value intended by the work is explicit, agreed and
