• Collaborate with Client Principals to ensure scope, change management, and expectations are delivered on.

Operations & Reporting

• Report directly to the CEO and COO on delivery health, risks, and resource utilization.
• Maintain portfolio-level visibility across all engagements and surface insights to leadership.
• Contribute to resourcing, scoping, and SOW processes for new engagements.

Required

• 7+ years of experience in consulting, professional services, or technology delivery.
• Proven track record managing and growing delivery teams.
