Plans, tracks, and delivers projects by translating ideas and concepts into executable plans within defined scope, time, and cost constraints. Provides day-to-day execution across the project lifecycle leveraging AI-enabled tools: scoping, planning, data gathering and analysis, recommendations and decision-making, implementation of change, and monitoring and evaluation. Partners with organizational change management teams or leads change management activities when dedicated support is not available. Manages daily activities of assigned team members to ensure timely and quality delivery. Identifies and applies relevant performance standards and benchmarks to define and measure project success. Applies core project management disciplines (e.g., scheduling, risk management, stakeholder communication) to projects across multiple functions or domains, augmented by AI supported insights where appropriate. Builds and maintains relationships with internal teams, customers, and external partners to ensure clear communication, resolve conflicts, and deliver successful outcomes.
