• Lead change management activities, including stakeholder engagement, communication, and adoption measurement, using established methodologies.
• Identify, assess, and mitigate cross-functional risks and dependencies, coordinating resolutions across Finance, IT, Commercial, and other business units.
• Establish and maintain program dashboards and provide clear, decision-ready reporting to senior leadership.
• Coach and enable project teams by standardizing methods, tools, and templates to ensure consistent, high-quality delivery.
• Foster strong collaboration and alignment across the organization to ensure successful program outcomes.
