- Executive Engagement: Partner with the Executive team to develop and maintain the company's product roadmap and portfolio strategy, ensuring alignment with customer needs.
- Cross-Functional Team Leadership: Manage cross-functional teams, fostering collaboration among R&D, Design & Engineering, Operations, and Commercial departments. Ensure all teams are aligned and working efficiently towards common program goals and facilitate smooth handoffs between each department.
- Stakeholder Management and Communication: Serve as the key liaison between internal teams, external partners, and stakeholders. Communicate program progress, risks, and strategies effectively across all levels of the organization.
- Risk Management and Problem Solving: Proactively identify risks and obstacles within the program lifecycle, from R&D to manufacturing. Develop and implement risk mitigation strategies and problem-solving measures to ensure program success.
- Performance Metrics: Establish and track key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure program success. Provide regular updates to stakeholders on program progress, challenges, and outcomes.
- Continuous Improvement: Leverage lessons learned and best practices to drive continuous improvement in program management processes and methodologies.
- Schedule, Budget and Resource Management: Oversee program schedule, budgets, and resource allocation. Ensure projects are delivered within allocated budgets and timelines, making adjustments as necessary to address project needs.
