• Strengthen delivery discipline and continuous improvement, applying modern delivery practices and helping teams inspect/adapt operating rhythms, metrics, and ways of working to improve predictability and outcomes.
• Champion AI fluency and responsible adoption of agentic capabilities, identifying and delivering opportunities to embed AI‑assisted workflows into program execution (e.g., portfolio insights, delivery automation, risk identification, stakeholder communications) in partnership with product, engineering, and control stakeholders.
• Lead experimentation and learning loops, running lightweight pilots with defined success measures, capturing lessons learned, and scaling what works with appropriate governance and risk management.
