• Create and drive integrated program plans and workflows, including roadmaps, milestones, dependencies, resourcing, decision points, and standardized intake and routing processes. Track intake volume, cycle time, handoffs, and rework drivers.
• Apply creative, practical problem-solving to navigate ambiguity and develop scalable solutions across complex compliance challenges.
• Define and manage the program delivery approach, including plan structure, operating cadence, and change control.
• Drive cross-functional alignment across Legal, People, Security/GRC, Product, Engineering, and business teams.
• Sequence work and manage interdependencies across initiatives to ensure timely delivery of program milestones.
• Track overall program health, identify risks or delays, develop risk mitigation plans, and escalate issues as needed to keep work on track.
• Operate program governance, including decision logs, RAID tracking, status reporting, and escalation management through resolution.
• Ensure audit and regulatory readiness by tracking commitments and delivering high-quality, complete, and well-documented outputs suitable for governance and executive review.
• Establish and manage remediation pipelines, ensuring clear ownership, severity, timelines, and evidence of closure.
• Build and maintain program metrics and dashboards, including KPIs, OKRs, and KRIs, to improve visibility and predictability. Analyze compliance data, documentation, and workflows to identify gaps, inconsistencies, and opportunities for improvement.
• Strengthen evidence quality and documentation standards in partnership with control owners and stakeholders.
• Develop and scale repeatable program infrastructure, including playbooks, templates, workflows, and tooling, to improve operational maturity.
