- Orchestrate delivery across internal stakeholders and external vendors or partners
- Act as a delegated authority for technology and system changes, ensuring alignment to approved roadmaps and architectural direction
- Assess and route system changes for approval, BAU implementation, or SiP-managed project delivery
- Ensure solutions integrate effectively across process, product, data, and technology dimensions
- Drive change readiness, training, and adoption to ensure delivered outcomes are embedded successfully
- Monitor product, project, and capability performance against defined success metrics
- Identify and manage risks across delivery, product ownership, and system evolution
- Support clean transition and handover of delivered initiatives to BAU or Product Ownership
