• Design and execute project communication strategies while proactively managing stakeholder expectations and concerns
• Serve as a sparring partner and coach to managing directors and senior leaders, providing direct feedback even on uncomfortable topics
• Develop reusable PMI blueprints and standards for future integrations in partnership with executive leadership
• Provide transparent reporting to senior management and escalate risks early
