- Provide strategic delivery leadership, enabling Product Management and senior stakeholders to make informed, timely decisions based on a single, integrated view of value, risk, dependencies and client commitments.
- Establish and maintain a cross‑platform view of dependencies, sequencing and critical paths impacting initiative outcomes.
- Elevate management information from retrospective reporting to forward‑looking insight that enables early course‑correction.
- Partner with STEs, RTEs and senior delivery leaders to identify cross‑platform critical paths and systemic hotspots.
- Facilitate senior‑level forums that connect Product Management, Product Owners and Platform Leads around issues that require strategic decision‑making.
- Reduce late escalation by embedding a proactive, anticipatory delivery culture.
- Act as a trusted advisor to senior leaders on delivery feasibility, sequencing and risk.
- Single point of contact, escalation and status for initiative sponsor and key stakeholders across Product groups and platforms.
- Coordinate discovery and management of full end-to-end plan.
To be successful in this role, we’re seeking the following:
- Bachelor’s degree or the equivalent combination of education and experience is required.
- 10+ years of experience in program/project delivery, portfolio delivery, or large-scale transformation in a complex, multi-team environment.
- Demonstrated success operating at enterprise scale, across multiple products, platforms and delivery organizations.
- Deep experience working alongside Product Management, RTEs and Agile delivery leadership.
- Background in financial services, asset servicing strongly preferred.
- Outcome‑focused and strategically pragmatic.
- Calm under ambiguity; able to create clarity without oversimplification.
- Strong risk, issue, and dependency management skills, including facilitation of decision-making forums.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including executive-ready status reporting and narrative building.
