• Proven track record delivering ERP, CRM, and EPM projects; Oracle Fusion exposure is highly desirable.

• End-to-end delivery experience (design, planning, implementation, go-live).

• Strong governance, PMO structuring, and documentation discipline.

• Ability to engage senior stakeholders and navigate a semi-government environment with political astuteness.

• Excellent communication, leadership, and conflict-resolution skills.

• Competitive compensation package aligned with senior leadership roles.
