  • Maintain a consolidated view of risks, issues, dependencies, decisions, and action items; escalate blockers and facilitate timely resolution.
  • Provide exception-based reporting that highlights workstreams, vendors, data domains, or decisions that are at risk, blocked, or pending action.
  • Monitor outcomes, defects, service performance, and issue resolution during hypercare and stabilization.
  • Transition implemented products, capabilities, data, or vendor oversight responsibilities to operational owners and incorporate lessons learned into the operating model.
  • Ensure assigned initiatives comply with applicable regulatory, privacy, security, contractual, and organizational requirements.
  • Serve as a trusted advisor to business owners, technology partners, vendors, and executive leadership on product strategy, readiness, and performance.
  • Manage stakeholder expectations regarding roadmap trade-offs, delivery risks, dependencies, and changes in scope or timing.
