• Manage issues, risks, and dependencies across multiple projects, ensuring timely resolution and mitigation.
• Manage project timelines, cost, and scope to ensure successful delivery within agreed parameters.
• Manage the intake lifecycle for new project engagements; ensure proper evaluation, onboarding, and resourcing.
