Work closely with functional, site, and GBO leadership to align on launch schedules and optimize resource loading locally and globally.
Continuously calibrate time and resource assumptions for standard schedule blocks based on actual launch project experience.
Create and maintain a process to feed learnings from executed schedules, including bottlenecks and inefficiencies, back into Launch Excellence to support ongoing improvement.
Oversee preparation of launch readiness portfolios, operational status updates, and one-pagers for internal and external launches for GBO or MLT governance meetings.
Drive the implementation and maintenance of a single GBO-wide software tool for project scheduling, resource loading, and operational status reporting where possible.
Build and sustain a high-performing Launch Project Scheduling organization through appropriate staffing, talent development, and retention strategies.
Set clear priorities and performance expectations for direct reports; coach, develop, and manage performance effectively.
