• Ensure accountability for scope, cost, timeline, risks, and issues.
• Manage progress and financial reporting using best practices.
• Build and maintain strong client relationships and manage expectations.
• Support business development, including commercial proposals and negotiations.
• Lead delivery of complex, multi‑team projects and align with account strategy.
• Drive continuous innovation and client value.

• Extensive SAP delivery experience across large‑scale, multi‑million‑pound projects.
• Strong knowledge of Agile, Waterfall, and hybrid methodologies.
