• Upcoming milestones
• Prepare materials for steering committee and board-level reporting.
• Coordinate phase-gate approvals with the Executive Sponsor, who owns the business case and funding.

• Data Engineers — data pipelines, integration, and data readiness
• Data Scientists — analytics, models, experimentation, and data science deliverables

The Senior Project Manager will be accountable for maintaining and delivering:

Success Measures

Success in this role means:
