  • Demonstrated success managing budgets, forecasting, financial performance, resource planning, and cost optimization.
  • Experience leading large-scale, cross-functional initiatives involving business, technology, product, and operational stakeholders.
  • Advanced risk management, problem-solving, decision-making, and organizational change management capabilities.
  • Excellent executive communication, stakeholder engagement, negotiation, and presentation skills.
  • Proficiency with portfolio management, project management, reporting, analytics, and resource planning tools.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience within financial services, fintech, banking, payments, capital markets, or other highly regulated industries.
  • Professional certifications such as PMP, PgMP, PfMP, PMI-ACP, PRINCE2, SAFe, Agile, or equivalent.
