  • Work closely with cross-functional partners to deliver business value promptly while ensuring high quality and transparency.

  • Strong organizational skills, with the ability to manage ambiguity, multitask, and work independently in a fast-paced environment.
  • Proficiency in synthesizing data from various sources and presenting it in an easily digestible format for management and execution teams.
  • Experience in contract lifecycle management (CLM) and cloud migration programs.
  • Innovative problem-solving skills and a strong ability to deliver effective solutions.
  • Strong negotiation skills and experience working with cross-functional teams.
  • Ability to navigate ambiguity in a rapidly evolving environment.
