• Stakeholder Management: Excellent communication and relationship-building skills, with the ability to confidently present strategies and updates to business leaders and sales and distribution executives.
• Analytical Problem-Solving: Strong capability to anticipate business risks associated with system migrations and proactively design solutions to mitigate them.
