Within the Estates & Facilities Project Team, we specialise in delivering high-quality construction projects within the healthcare sector. Our team is dedicated to transforming healthcare environments that support both patient care and staff well-being. We are seeking a proactive and detail-oriented Project Assistant to join our growing team and support the successful delivery of construction projects across both the Isle of Wight NHS Trust and Portsmouth Hospital University NHS Trust estate.

Role Overview:

As a Project Assistant, you will co-ordinate and manage the delivery of small works projects. You will also play a crucial role in supporting the project management team through all stages of the construction process, from planning to completion. Your efforts will help ensure that projects are completed on time, within budget, and to the highest quality standards, while meeting the specific needs of the organisation.

Our vision for Single Corporate Services:

Isle of Wight NHS Trust (IWT) and Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust (PHU) have a shared vision of a single corporate service across our two organisations, supported by a single set of identical systems and processes, under joint leadership, to drive significant efficiencies, improve employee experience, and return time to patient care.

This vacancy is part of the Single Corporate Services Division.

Why are we changing the way we deliver Corporate Services?

Working as a partnership, both IWT and PHU have a shared vision for excellence in care for our patients and communities, with a set of strategic aims underpinning how we will achieve this. The creation of a single corporate service is essential for us to support our clinical and operational services and our wider transformation programme.

The single corporate service is delivered across both organisations. You may be based at either IWT or PHU, and individuals may be required to undertake business travel between sites.
