- Testing Orchestration: Coordinate comprehensive testing cycles across multiple environments, taking ownership of SIT, UAT, and Regression readiness.
- High-Stakes Launch Management: Act as the command center for Go-Live, coordinating complex cutover activities and leading the critical post-launch Hypercare phase.
- Change & Business Readiness: Drive user adoption, coordinate extensive training activities, and ensure flawless documentation and knowledge transfer.
- Cross-Functional Leadership: Serve as the central point of contact between internal teams, external vendors, IT delivery streams, and business executives to ensure alignment.
What You Need to Bring
- Extensive Experience: 14 to 20 years of proven project management experience, specifically focused on complex IT implementations or large-scale business transformations.
- Governance Expertise: A deep, practical understanding of formal project governance, PMO stage-gates, and structured enterprise delivery models.
- Deployment Mastery: A strong track record of successfully guiding enterprise systems through stressful cutover weekends and managing hypercare environments.
- Testing Oversight: Demonstrated ability to drive IT teams through rigorous testing cycles (SIT, UAT, Regression) to ensure launch readiness.
- Exceptional Communication: The ability to confidently facilitate discussions, manage expectations, and influence stakeholders across both technical and business divisions.
