Manage scope, dependencies, risks, and finances

• Actively manage scope, dependencies, and cross-team impacts

• Identify risks and issues early, drive mitigation plans, and escalate appropriately

• Clearly communicate trade-offs to support timely decision-making

• Manage initiative-level budgets and maintain accurate forecasts

Deliver in alignment with portfolio standards

• Deliver initiatives in line with portfolio governance and delivery standards

• Experience managing large, complex initiatives alongside one or more medium/smaller projects
