Technical PMO Analyst
Tower Research CapitalAbout the Role
We are hiring a technical PMO analyst as part of our Platform Strategy and Transformation team to strengthen our PMO capability based in London. This is a hands-on, hybrid role: part project delivery and PMO operations, part builder of internal tools and metrics, and part owner of internal documentation quality.
You will help run the PMO day to day, collect and challenge project updates, define and build useful metrics/dashboards, and take ownership of selected projects. You will also write Python (with AI coding assistants) to automate work and ship small internal UIs/admin tools, and act as content manager for PMO and project documentation on Confluence (and related internal spaces).
This role suits someone who likes structure and delivery, can code enough to build practical tools, cares about clear documentation, and wants to grow into broader project management over time.
- PMO operations, metrics and reporting: collecting and consolidating project updates into decision-ready status reporting; defining and maintaining project and portfolio metrics; building dashboards and management information; supporting portfolio and programme forums; maintaining RAID logs.
- Tooling and automation: writing Python scripts and small applications to support PMO workflows across Jira and Confluence; automating repetitive workflows; building small internal UIs and admin tools.
- Documentation and standards: acting as content manager for internal PMO and project documentation; creating playbooks, templates, and training materials; improving PMO tooling and ways of working.
- Project delivery: taking ownership of selected small-to-medium projects as Project Manager and coordinating across engineering, business, and operations stakeholders.
Requirements
- 1–3 years of relevant experience in PMO, project coordination, junior project management, business analysis, operations tooling, or a similar delivery-support role (financial services, technology, or consulting preferred but not required)
- Ability to code in Python for practical automation and data work (scripts, APIs, data cleaning/transformation, and basic applications); professional software-engineering background is not required
- Comfort building small UIs / internal tools with AI coding assistance (e.g. simple web interfaces, forms, dashboards, or admin utilities)
- Ability to define and build metrics — turning project activity into clear indicators, charts, and actionable reporting
- Strong written communication and editorial judgment, with the ability to act as content manager for internal documentation (structure, clarity, consistency, and upkeep)
- Hands-on experience with Jira and Confluence
- Strong organisational skills and attention to detail; able to manage multiple work streams without dropping follow-ups
- Clear verbal communication skills; able to turn messy updates into concise reporting
- Ability to pivot tasks quickly with the evolving needs of the business and to navigate ambiguous environments while maintaining focus and delivering results
- Ability to support working across multiple time zones, as needed
- Proactive, ownership-oriented mindset; comfortable asking questions, challenging gently, and driving work to completion
