• Lead complex, cross-functional projects and selected programs from initiation through implementation, ensuring alignment with enterprise strategy, business priorities, and operational goals.

• Apply ePMO standards, tools, templates, and governance practices to support consistent project execution, stage-gate reviews, issue escalation, and leadership decision-making.

• Develop and maintain detailed project and program plans, milestones, critical paths, interdependencies, RAID logs, and resource assumptions to ensure successful delivery.

• Facilitate alignment across business leaders, functional teams, subject matter experts, and external partners to clarify scope, priorities, success measures, and accountabilities.

• Drive executive-ready reporting and communication, including status updates, risk summaries, milestone reviews, and recommendations for corrective action.

• Identify, assess, and proactively manage BT&C project and program risks, issues, assumptions, and dependencies; escalate critical concerns with recommended mitigation plans.

• Support portfolio visibility by tracking initiative health, timeline performance, resource constraints, and business value realization across assigned workstreams.

• Partner with Marketing, R&D, Finance, Operations, Supply Chain, Commercialization, IT, and other functions as needed to ensure initiatives are scoped appropriately and benefits are measurable and sustained.

• Lead working sessions to build business cases, define implementation roadmaps, coordinate decisions, remove barriers, and maintain momentum across multiple concurrent initiatives.

• Promote change management and adoption by ensuring stakeholders are informed, engaged, and prepared for process, system, or operating model changes.

• Coach project team members and functional leads on accountability, disciplined execution, and effective use of project management best practices.
