• Proven ability to coordinate multiple stakeholders, projects, and workstreams simultaneously.
• Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills.
• Experience managing RAID logs, governance, planning, dependencies, risks, and budgets.
• Strong influencing and relationship-building capabilities across business and technology functions.
