This role will translate the transformation strategy into an executable, integrated program and ensure Accounting requirements are successfully delivered through design, build, testing, deployment, and stabilization. The Delivery and Integrated Program Management Lead will establish program governance, manage the integrated plan, drive cross-functional decisions, and proactively address risks, dependencies, resource constraints, and critical-path activities.
In addition to overall program integration, this leader will be directly responsible for the Data Migration and Release, Change and Training, Business Readiness, and Testing and Quality workstreams. They will ensure these capabilities are coordinated with solution design and engineering activities and that the organization, data, processes, controls, and users are prepared for a controlled and successful deployment.
