• Translate regulatory expectations (AI risk, privacy, security, model risk, third‑party risk) into practical governance controls
• Define governance forums, roles, RACI, escalation paths, and decision authorities
• Ensure governance integration across CISO, Privacy, Legal, Risk, Compliance, and Business teams
• Drive programme cadence, milestones, reporting, and stakeholder communication
• Prepare the organisation for BAU transition at programme completion
