  • Own program planning, critical path, and dependency management, proactively identifying delivery risks, resourcing constraints, and decision points, and driving timely resolution
  • Prepare and lead senior stakeholder forums (e.g., steering committees and executive touchpoints), including agenda setting, synthesis of insights, framing of decisions, and articulation of trade-offs

  • Continuously evolve PMO ways of working, adapting governance, cadence, and tooling to suit a fast-changing transformation context and keeping processes fit-for-purpose rather than over-engineered
