You will:

• Lead End-to-End Project Delivery: Serve as the single point of accountability for the planning, execution, and successful delivery of multiple concurrent global projects in the Corporate Technology portfolio. Oversee each project from initiation through closeout, ensuring objectives are met and stakeholder expectations are managed.

• Project Planning & Control: Develop comprehensive project charters and plans, including defining scope, schedule (timelines/milestones), resource plans, and budgets for each initiative. Implement and maintain project controls to effectively manage scope, schedule, quality, cost, risk, and communications for all projects in the portfolio.

• Cross-Functional Coordination: Coordinate and lead cross-functional Project Delivery Teams, which may include GTS technical resources, business analysts, external vendors, and business stakeholders from Corp. Affairs, HR, and other departments. Clearly define team members’ roles/responsibilities and hold them accountable for deliverables.

• Stakeholder Management: Act as the primary liaison between GTS and business stakeholders. Facilitate regular project status meetings and steering committee reviews with senior leadership and functional sponsors, ensuring alignment on project goals, timelines, and issue resolution.

• Risk & Issue Management: Proactively identify, document, and mitigate project risks (technical, operational, regulatory) and resolve issues that arise during project execution. Ensure projects adhere to relevant regulations and internal policies (e.g., data privacy, compliance standards). Escalate critical risks or roadblocks to higher management with analysis and recommended action plans when they are beyond the PM’s authority to resolve.

• Budget & Resource Management: Manage project budgets (including both internal resources and vendor costs) in line with approved allocations. Track and report on project financials; control expenses to meet budget targets. Adjust resource plans and schedules as needed to address project changes or unexpected challenges, following formal change control processes.

• Vendor Oversight: When projects involve third-party software implementations or consulting partners, oversee vendor performance and delivery. Ensure vendor activities and deliverables meet company’s requirements, timelines, and quality standards. Coordinate vendor contracts, statements of work, and ensure proper integration of their work with internal teams.

• Project Documentation: Maintain all project documentation (project plans, risk registers, change logs, status reports) in an organized manner. Adhere to GTS methodologies and governance processes for project reporting and stage-gate reviews. Ensure projects are “audit-ready” with documentation that meets internal audit and external regulatory expectations for related systems.

• Communication & Reporting: Provide clear, timely, and concise project status updates to stakeholders at various levels (detailed team status updates, as well as executive summaries for senior management). Prepare and deliver presentations or reports for project milestones, steering committee meetings, and post-project reviews. Facilitate effective communication among technical teams and business partners to keep all parties informed and engaged.

• Continuous Improvement: Identify lessons learned and best practices from each project. Contribute to the improvement of project management practices within GTS by recommending enhancements to methodologies, templates, or processes based on project experience.
