The interviewer is likely looking for someone who is open to delegating tasks. With so many moving parts in a large project, a project support officer can't do everything by themselves. They need to lead teams and delegate tasks. But the interviewer also wants to know how you go about delegating to ensure you aren't a micromanager, so try to show that you're not heavy-handed or a control freak.

"I think an essential part of being a project support officer is depending on others to complete tasks. I don't view my role as the person who does everything themselves. Instead, I see myself as the person who supports the project manager in overseeing the various teams involved in the project. Our job is to make sure they do their jobs effectively and efficiently so the project is completed in a timely manner. Having said that, I put a lot of effort into assembling great teams so when I delegate a task I am confident that it's in good hands. Then, outside of checking in periodically, I leave the person or team alone so they can do what they need to do."
