As a Project Manager Office no two days are the same. I often start the day by reading my email. Is there anything specific I need to attend to? Is immediate action required? This doesn’t appear to be the case today. At 10 a.m. I have a video conference with our colleagues in London. The company has won a new mandate in the UK, so we can welcome a new client! We discuss the timetables and services for the onboarding of this new client so we can prepare for the start of a new project. I then start working on the project documentation. This includes a project plan and an action list after which I schedule the kick-off meeting with representatives of the various internal teams involved in the onboarding.

After lunch, I chair a project meeting. We are about to launch a new fund. Those involved are updated on the status and outstanding challenges are discussed. Throughout the day, I am in touch with various colleagues as we deal with outstanding issues on projects.
