  • You’ll oversee RAID management activities, proactively identifying risks, dependencies, and mitigation strategies
  • In this position, you’ll provide executive-level reporting and communicate project health, milestones, and release readiness updates
  • You’ll support organizational change management and business readiness efforts throughout the transformation lifecycle
  • You’ll coordinate delivery using a hybrid Agile and Waterfall methodology approach


Skills and Qualifications
