  • Strategic Process Optimization: Conduct deep-dive quantitative analysis of "AS-IS" system flows. You will be expected to build robust, data-backed business cases to justify "TO-BE" process enhancements.

  • Operational Leadership: Facilitate the project's rhythm-including daily stand-ups and weekly syncs-while maintaining strict oversight of budget spend and deliverable quality control.
