In addition, this role serves as the incident commander for major, enterprise-impacting events, leading cross-functional response efforts and ensuring timely resolution, clear communication, and continuous improvement. The role includes direct people leadership, supporting delivery risk and/or incident management execution.

Coordinate the intake, prioritization, and execution of delivery-related risk and control work, ensuring alignment with delivery plans and sustainable implementation
Identify systemic issues, recurring delivery friction, and operational inefficiencies, driving continuous improvement and providing visibility into delivery health, risks, and performance trends
Establish effective operating rhythms for cross-team alignment, escalation, and decision-making, while building strong partnerships across Technology, Product, Operations, and Business stakeholders
Lead and develop a team supporting delivery coordination, incident engagement, and operational execution, ensuring clear ownership and scalable processes
