o Facilitate regular project reviews, stand‑ups, and progress reporting to maintain delivery cadence and transparency.
o Ensure effective communication and coordination across all stakeholders involved in R&D delivery.
* Quality & Compliance
o Support to establish and maintain consistent delivery frameworks, tools, and ways of working across R&D projects.
o Ensure clear documentation of scope, plans, progress, and outcomes for all initiatives.
o Drive accountability for delivery timelines, outputs, and quality standards across cross‑functional teams.
o Support continuous improvement of R&D delivery processes, tools, and methodologies.
