- Stand up and reinforce governance routines that improve delivery predictability, including intake, scope management, backlog hygiene, schedule management, delivery tracking, RAID management, documentation, and action item follow-up.
- Support the program objective of achieving at least 80% on-time delivery of commitments by maintaining clear plans, ownership, decision logs, escalation paths, and performance visibility across workstreams.
- Prepare clear status updates, leadership readouts, decision materials, and escalation summaries that help teams align on priorities, trade-offs, release readiness, quality concerns, and execution risks.
- Facilitate productive meetings, working sessions, and follow-ups that keep teams focused on outcomes, unblock delivery, and reinforce accountability across teams that do not directly report into one another.
- Identify and improve ways of working that reduce execution friction, strengthen transparency, and support scalable delivery practices for future rental programs and 2030 planning.
What You Will Have:- Planning: Tactical, Strategic: Knowledge of effective planning techniques and ability to contribute to operational, tactical, and strategic planning in support of the overall business plan.

- Proven ability to engage stakeholders and communicate effectively with product, engineering, business, dealer, and leadership audiences, translating complex delivery topics into clear updates, asks, and decisions.
- Highly organized, detail-driven, and structured, with a track record of maintaining schedules, action items, documentation, risks, decisions, delivery metrics, and dependencies across multiple teams.
- Demonstrated ability to drive accountability without direct authority, remove blockers, facilitate alignment, and maintain momentum in ambiguous or fast-moving environments with existing dependencies and quality challenges.
- Experience building or refining delivery processes, operating rhythms, dashboards, templates, or governance routines that improve transparency, predictability, execution quality, and on-time delivery performance.
- Experience working with dealer-facing digital products, rental operations, ERP or integration programs, Caterpillar's digital portfolio, or scaled planning efforts is preferred.
