• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple concurrent programs with competing priorities and ambiguous or evolving scope

• Experience managing vendor relationships and third-party partnerships in support of technology program delivery

• Proactive approach to stakeholder engagement: anticipating concerns, actively seeking feedback, motivating others to challenge the status quo, and iterating on deliverables to drive accountability and quality outcomes
