Identify opportunities to improve portfolio processes, governance, and ways of working, particularly in sensitive environments.

Experience of stakeholder management across multiple functions, including delivery, commercial, and external partners. Experience of using the relationship between business requirements, supplier capability, and delivery outcomes.
