• Track transition milestones, dependencies, risks, and issues, ensuring timely escalation and resolution where required.
• Coordinate with cross functional teams to ensure readiness of operational, systems, infrastructure, and partner (3PL)-related activities supporting transformation priorities.
• Support execution of site transitional activities, including coordination of cutover planning, stabilization activities (hyper care), and transition governance.
