Looking for a senior Project Manager for a global Food Enterprise project focused on migrating data models to a new tech stack, increasing data governance maturity, and unifying data products as part of a business integration.

- Ensure plan updates reflect approved scope, sequencing, and delivery changes
- Execution Tracking & Delivery Oversight Drive disciplined execution of the project plan by monitoring progress against scope, schedule, and key deliverables.
- Track workstream status and delivery commitments
- Identify schedule variances and drive corrective actions
- Ensure deliverables meet agreed acceptance criteria and timelines
- Risk, Issue, & Dependency Management
Own the active management of projectlevel risks, issues, and dependencies to minimize delivery disruption.
- Maintain and regularly update RAID logs

- Drive mitigation plans and escalate risks requiring leadership intervention

- CrossFunctional Coordination
Act as the central coordination point across Food Minerva workstreams and stakeholders.

- Ensure handoffs between phases (build test UAT cutover) are planned and executed

- Change Control & Scope Management
Support disciplined scope and change management across the project lifecycle.
- Track scope changes and ensure impacts to schedule, cost, and resources are understood
- Facilitate change intake and approval workflows
- Ensure approved changes are reflected in plans, reporting, and delivery commitments
- Cutover & Hypercare Coordination Support Provide project management support through cutover and stabilization phases.
- Coordinate readiness activities across testing, change, and cutover leads
- Track golive action items, issues, and stabilization milestones
- Support postgolive reporting and closure activities
