The role You will lead the design, setup, and activation of a GitHub Copilot and Agent Builder Centre of Excellence inside Rogers' IT organisation. This is a hands-on programme leadership role — not an advisory engagement.

You will build the governance framework, establish the five foundational repositories, activate the Champion network across Rogers IT verticals, and own the metrics narrative that connects Copilot adoption to engineering outcomes that Rogers IT leadership tracks. You are building a programme that Rogers will own and sustain independently after the engagement.
