We believe in looking after our people, and it shows. When you join Ipsum, you’re not just taking a job — you’re starting a career with real support behind it.
The Governance Coordinator supports the smooth delivery of projects and change initiatives by ensuring governance processes, reporting, and documentation are consistently maintained. Working closely with Project Managers and Product Owners, the role provides coordination, portfolio oversight, and administrative support to help keep projects on track and aligned with organisational standards.
We're looking for someone with experience in project coordination, PMO, governance, or portfolio support roles who enjoys keeping things organised and running smoothly. You'll be confident managing documentation, producing reports, and supporting projects through strong planning and communication skills. Experience using Jira and Microsoft Office is essential, and any knowledge of Agile ways of working, Power BI, SharePoint, or product delivery environments would be a bonus. The ideal candidate will be detail-oriented, proactive, and comfortable working with a range of stakeholders across the business.

At Ipsum, we provide specialist engineering services across the UK’s regulated water and energy companies and private sector businesses.
We work with our customers to maintain, optimise and develop their above and below ground assets to ensure security and resilience, and with our smart systems and ways of working, we ensure we deliver on time, on budget and safely.
At Ipsum, we develop long-term working relationships with our customers by providing essential utility services on both public and private networks. We have many long-term contracts and framework arrangements in place which are built upon great customer service, safe working practices and the ability to flex and deploy specialist skillsets at short notice.
The growth of Ipsum has been built upon our people and our ability to meet the demanding and ever-changing needs of our customers. The UK utility sector is evolving and expanding to meet increasing customer demand, regulatory-driven outcomes and to exploit new innovative technologies, at Ipsum we will continue to grow in this sector by being a reliable, flexible and agile service partner that helps customers meet these new challenges.
As we know, utility service provision is not a 9 to 5 business, our customers don’t switch off their networks or assets at night, or at the weekends, or on holidays, or when things are quiet. They need them to work round the clock – and we at Ipsum are right beside them 24/7 to make sure they do.
We pride ourselves in providing specialist scheduled maintenance services, being able to respond to an individual call-out or mobilise onto a major upgrade project and that our customers can rely on Ipsum 24/7/365.
