Establish governance standards (stage gates, RACI, definitions, update SLAs) and monitor adherence; remediate data quality issues. Track portfolio outcomes and benefits; report variances vs. plan and drive corrective actions. Lead change management and training to drive consistent SPM adoption across stakeholders. Continuously improve processes by benchmarking best practices and adopting relevant ServiceNow releases.

Support audits/controls around investment decisions and portfolio governance. Qualifications

Excellent facilitation and executive communication; able to influence without direct authority. Change management and training experience to drive tool/process adoption.
