- Ensure appropriate QA checks are embedded (e.g., deliverables, acceptance, warranty, limitation of liability, IP, data protection, subcontracting, and dispute mechanisms).
4) Engagement Governance & Issue Management
- Participate in governance for high-risk engagements, including escalations such as change disputes, demand letters, payment notices, and other contractual/commercial events.
- Coordinate a rapid response approach by assembling/working with Risk Managers, Contract Managers, and Quality champions to mitigate exposure and stabilize delivery.
5) Stakeholder Management & Cross-Functional Leadership
- Partner with Portfolio and Offering leaders to review high-priority opportunities and engagements, highlighting risk mitigations and any relevant client history through monthly calls, 1:1s, and structured checkpoints.
- Act as a bridge across Legal, Delivery, Quality, and Commercial teams to drive aligned decisions and a consistent risk posture.
