• Provide concise, decision-oriented reporting to senior leadership on risk exposure, mitigation status, compliance milestones, audit observations, emerging issues and recommended actions.
• Coordinate ICFR, ISRM, UAM, Technology Quality, GxP and other compliance workstreams so that requirements are integrated consistently and gaps, overlaps and cross-program dependencies are actively managed.
• Drive standardization, control optimization and automation opportunities, and ensure compliance capabilities, ownership and documentation transition effectively to deployment and run-state teams.
