• Managing complex and high-risk implementations requiring integration between multiple parties (internal/external) to ensure safe delivery.
• Coordinating the integration process and/or implementation events across shared infrastructure (e.g. Upgrading the Mainframe); leading on the SI process, coordinating parties to get the change over the line. You’ll provide expertise (not content) for governance activity owned by the Product Owner, e.g. PRIA, for change across multiple programmes.
