• Engage colleagues across all relevant functions, facilitating workshops, requirements gathering, and decision-making.
• Lead process discovery and redesign activities, identifying opportunities for simplification and improved experience.
• Work closely with technical teams to manage system dependencies, requirements, testing, and implementation.
• Identify risks, issues, and dependencies early and propose clear mitigation strategies.
• Assess business impacts, support readiness activities, and enable effective transition into business-as-usual.
• Ensure project outcomes are clearly defined, measurable, and sustainably embedded within the organisation.
