  • Drive continuous improvement in delivery processes, tools, and best practices
  • Support pre-sales and transition activities by providing delivery inputs, estimates, and execution strategies as required

  • Excellent risk management, problem-solving, and decision-making skills

Certifications (Preferred):

  • PMP®, PRINCE2®, or equivalent project management certification
  • ITIL® Foundation or higher
