What Success Looks Like - Clear, transparent portfolio visibility with proactive risk management. - Improved predictability in delivery timelines and outcomes. - A PM team operating as strategic advisors, not task administrators. - Scalable, right-sized governance that enables speed and accountability. - Standardized, repeatable playbooks that drive consistent execution excellence. - Delivery success defined by business impact — not task completion. - Thoughtful adoption of agile, hybrid, and adaptive methodologies where they best fit. Experience - 8–12+ years leading enterprise delivery, PMO, or portfolio management functions. - Proven experience in transforming a PMO in hyper-growth, high tech organizations. - Strong background in agile, hybrid, and scaled delivery models. - Proven track record managing cross-functional programs in hybrid/agile environments. - People management experience leading global team members.
