  • Collaborate closely with IT Enablement leadership to establish consistent project management practices, ensure cross-functional resource allocation, and drive application initiatives from ideation to delivery.

  • Utilize and contribute to the PMO framework to ensure all application projects are delivered efficiently, on time, and within budget.

  • Ensure application compliance, security, and performance by embedding security practices into the software development lifecycle and managing robust disaster recovery plans.

  • Establish and enforce rigorous governance over the application portfolio to manage costs effectively, rationalize spending, and streamline vendor relationships.

Leadership and cultural change:

  • Build and lead a high-performing, agile team of applications professionals, fostering a culture of innovation, continuous learning, and cross-functional collaboration.

  • Empower the team to engage directly with the business, identify new opportunities, and act as a thought partner rather than a service provider.

  • Lead the cultural change required for digital transformation, promoting a service-oriented mindset and data-driven decision-making throughout the organization.

Required Qualifications:

  • 10+ years of progressive leadership experience in enterprise applications, with a proven track record of modernizing application portfolios.

  • Demonstrated experience in a leadership role, particularly in fostering business-IT alignment and driving cultural change.

  • Deep expertise in enterprise platforms (e.g., ERP, CRM, HRIS), cloud solutions, and modern delivery practices such as Agile and DevOps.

  • Strong business acumen with the ability to translate technical concepts into business value for executive-level stakeholders.

  • Proven ability to collaborate and build effective partnerships with peer leaders and their teams to deliver strategic initiatives.

  • Excellent communication, negotiation, and relationship-building skills to collaborate with both technical teams and business leaders.

  • Experience in the data center or a related technology-intensive industry.

  • Familiarity with scaling enterprise applications in a high-growth environment.

  • Certification in project management (e.g., PMP) or agile methodologies (e.g., Scrum Master).

  • Prolonged periods of sitting at a desk and working on a computer in an office environment

  • Ability to travel up to 20% for customer meetings, audits, conferences, or industry events
