• Create and deliver cross-functional planning governance, enforcing established principles that reach broadly inside and outside direct scope or region.
• Ensure incorporation of asset delivery status and risks from site acquisition through construction completion. Be responsible for maintaining consistent accountability and on-time performance of the regional plans within the region.
• Serve as the central bridge and point-of-contact for the regional planning, cultivating strong relationships to align internal business drivers of all key stakeholders with regional infrastructure plans and application across all geographic plans within APAC.
