• Own end-to-end portfolio management for global transformation initiatives, from intake and prioritization through delivery and benefits realization
• Establish and lead portfolio governance structures, including executive steering committees, stage gates, and decision-making frameworks
• Develop and manage multi-year roadmaps, sequencing initiatives and managing interdependencies across regions and functions
• Maintain integrated portfolio plans, dashboards, and delivery health metrics, ensuring a single source of truth for performance tracking
• Partner with Finance to manage portfolio financials, including business cases, forecasts, budgets, and benefits realization
• Drive value realization by defining KPIs, tracking outcomes, and ensuring sustained adoption post-implementation
• Coordinate cross-functional resource and capacity planning, resolving bottlenecks across global teams and technology domains
• Provide executive-level reporting, insights, and decision support, including risk escalation and recommendations
• Ensure alignment with enterprise architecture, cybersecurity, and data governance standards
• Coach program and project leaders on portfolio management best practices, risk mitigation, and change control
• Support vendor and partner oversight, including contract alignment and performance management
• Continuously improve portfolio management practices, tools, and reporting using Lean, Agile, or hybrid methodologies
