- Lead working groups and facilitate collaboration across teams to drive execution, resolve issues, and maintain delivery momentum.
- Prepare and contribute to senior management materials, including Steering Committee presentations, executive updates, and other program governance forums.
- Coordinate program status reporting, ensuring progress, risks, issues, and key decisions are communicated clearly and consistently.
- Maintain project plans, track milestones and deliverables, and proactively address potential delays or delivery risks.
- Manage program risks, actions, issues, and dependencies (RAID), facilitating timely resolution and escalation where required.
- Coordinate with external suppliers, consultants, and other delivery partners to support program objectives.
- Provide guidance and direction to junior team members, promoting collaboration, continuous improvement, and high-quality delivery.
- Support regulatory and strategic transformation initiatives, ensuring alignment across stakeholders and contributing to successful business outcomes.
