Due to their dynamic growth, our Client is currently establishing a Project Coordination Office to bring structure, visibility, and rhythm to their growing green-energy portfolio. Its central purpose is to close the communication gaps between departments – development, technical, legal and permitting, finance, and commercial – so that information flows reliably and nothing falls between the cracks.
The PCO Lead will be the connective tissue of project execution: building and running the platforms, processes, and reporting that keep projects aligned, surface risks early, and ensure decisions are well-prepared and well-documented.
This is a coordination and governance role, not a decision-making one. The postholder structures and accelerates the decision-making process and reports on it transparently, but accountability for project decisions remains with project leads and management.
Main responsibilities:
Cross-Department Communication (primary focus)
• Act as the central coordination point across all departments, ensuring decisions, dependencies, and status updates reach the right people at the right time.
• Identify and close communication gaps proactively – surfacing where teams are misaligned, blocked, or waiting on one another.
• Establish shared channels, conventions, and a single source of truth so that information no longer lives in silos.
• Facilitate the handoffs between project phases and between departments, making sure context travels with the work.
Tracking, Reporting & Follow-Up
• Design and maintain the project tracking framework: timelines, milestones, action items, dependencies, and deliverables across all active projects.
• Run a consistent reporting cadence (weekly/monthly dashboards and portfolio status reports) giving the GM and leadership a clear, real-time view of progress and bottlenecks.
• Track action items to closure across departments, following up proactively and flagging slippage before it becomes critical.
• Set up and administer the supporting platforms and tools (project management software, shared documentation, templates).
Decision-Support & Governance
• Prepare the groundwork for decisions: assemble the relevant data, options, and stakeholder input so leadership can decide quickly and with full context.
• Document and communicate decision outcomes and resulting follow-up actions, maintaining a clear decision log.
• Organize and run project governance meetings – agendas, minutes, action logs, and follow-through.
• Identify recurring process gaps and continuously improve the coordination framework.
Required skills:
• At least 5 years of proven experience in project coordination, PMO, or program management, ideally across multiple parallel projects.
- University or College degree
- Fluent Hungarian and English language skills both verbal and written
• Exceptional communication and stakeholder-management skills; able to coordinate senior people without holding formal authority over them.
• Strong organizational and process-design skills; able to build structure where little exists.
• Proficiency with project management and collaboration tools (e.g., MS Project, Asana, Monday, Smartsheet, or similar).
• High degree of discretion, ownership, and proactivity.
• Experience in renewable energy, infrastructure, or construction projects is a strong plus, but not essential – a strong PMO generalist who can quickly learn the development lifecycle is welcome.
