Project Administrators

The Project Administrator role is to support the Project Manager and Project Team in the administrative tasks of the project. In this particular description this is the administration of one project and one project manager. The Project Administrator may also be working alongside the Project Co-ordinator to provide support in areas such as project team administration (travel and meeting requirements), project meeting arrangements and providing minute taking, creating basic documents and templates, documentation filing, main point of contact for correspondence and telephone/email, general ad-hoc administration duties.

Project Administrators generally gain good project management experience by being delegated tasks by the Project Manager and Project Co-ordinator and being within the project team environment, usually moving into the role of Project Co-ordinator before too long.

Much like the Project Administrator and Project Office Administrator, the Programme Administrator role differs due to the position within a Programme. The Programme Administrator is responsible for supporting the Programme Manager, any Projects Managers delivering projects within that programme and the corresponding teams. The Programme Administrator is likely to be working with other programme support staff like a Programme Co-ordinator or Programme Planner, to provide key programme administration duties.

Among those programme administration duties are programme team administration (travel and meeting requirements), programme meeting arrangements and providing minute taking, creating basic documents and templates, documentation filing, main point of contact for correspondence and telephone/email, general adhoc administration duties.
