Define and track delivery KPIs, producing high-impact insights that aid executive decision-making.
Analyze short- and long-term resource needs to support effective capacity planning across the delivery streams.
Coordinate "Lessons Learned" sessions and promote a culture of knowledge sharing and "Customer Love."
Essential Requirements:
Proficient in Jira (including JQL scripting) and Tableau (or similar BI tools). You should be comfortable with coding languages used for reporting and dashboarding.
Proven experience in a PMO, Project Analyst, or Support role within a complex, large-scale environment.
