  • Create and maintain Project Artifacts project charter, project and integration plan(s), schedules, decisions, change orders, risks and mitigations, SDLC, data migration plans and status reporting within the standards of project management methodologies adopted by the PMO.
  • Work closely and collaboratively with other project teams, business areas and external parties to ensure interdependencies are identified early and managed successfully.
  • Ensure all application changes are developed, tested and implemented in a wellcontrolled environment.
  • Participate in crossfunctional teams that will complete the following: initial research and design, creating and pitching proposals, driving implementation, evaluation and review, and performance monitoring.
  • Lead workshops for client education and information gathering sessions.
  • Conduct regular analysis to identify opportunities and develop strategies to improve performance on key KPIs.
