• Build, maintain, and manage project plans, delivery milestones, dependencies, RAID logs, status reports, and project governance materials.
• Coordinate delivery across client stakeholders, internal teams, Murex SMEs, business analysts, technical teams, vendors, QA teams, and system integrators.
• Manage project scope, priorities, risks, issues, assumptions, decisions, dependencies, and delivery commitments.
