  • Collaborate with technology and data teams to continuously improve project management tooling and capabilities.
  • Establish and manage project and portfolio governance frameworks to ensure consistency, compliance, and accountability.
  • Ensure projects are delivering intended business outcomes and measurable value, not just tactical milestones.
  • Promote continuous improvement through lessons learned, retrospectives, and performance analysis at both project and portfolio levels.
  • Serve as a trusted advisor to senior leadership on delivery risk, organizational capacity, and execution strategy.

Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's Degree required
