  • Strong expertise in stage-gate processes, program governance, and risk management.
  • Experience implementing and scaling PMO methodologies, tools, and standard processes.
  • Exceptional stakeholder management, executive communication, and decision-making abilities.
  • Experience leading program budgets, aligning program execution with business objectives, and optimizing resource allocation.
