Roles and Responsibilities

You will take full accountability for delivery outcomes, coordinating cross‑functional teams across engineering, product, and business functions. While prior software delivery experience informs effective execution, the role requires balanced leadership across scope, stakeholders, risk, and value realization. You will manage multiple projects within a portfolio, providing efficient and effective coordination of a complex range of activities by clearly defining project team and stakeholder roles and responsibilities that are aligned with the delivery of the expected benefits. You will ensure effective identification of risks and pro-active solutioning to mitigate risks and impact on timelines.

Success in this role depends on the ability to drive client outcomes through strong delivery leadership while building, coaching, and empowering high‑performing teams.

Client Impact

Own end‑to‑end delivery outcomes across multiple large, complex, high‑value initiatives, ensuring alignment between client objectives, delivery scope, timelines, and realized benefits

Apply proven project, change, and agile delivery methodologies to drive measurable client value, making informed trade‑offs between scope, time, cost, quality, and risk.

Leverage prior experience working with software delivery teams to enhance planning accuracy, risk identification, and issue resolution, while maintaining focus on overall program outcomes.

Proactively identify, assess, and mitigate delivery risks and dependencies, escalating with clear analysis, options, and recommendations when required.

Build and sustain trusted relationships with client managers and delivery leaders, acting as a reliable partner throughout the engagement lifecycle.

Team Collaboration & Culture

Develop clear, well‑structured business recommendations and deliver effective client presentations that synthesize complex delivery information into actionable insights.

Plan, organize, and structure both personal work and that of junior team members to address client challenges efficiently and with high quality.

Lead and facilitate internal and client meetings, foster alignment and collaboration across cross‑functional teams including business, product, technology, and operations.

Grow from coaching to enabling ownership of day‑to‑day delivery activities by junior consultants, providing guidance, feedback, and mentorship to support their professional development.

Contribute to the firm’s intellectual capital, delivery standards, and solution development efforts, acting as a strong brand ambassador for Mastercard Services.

Promote a collaborative, inclusive team culture that values accountability, continuous improvement, and shared success across engagements.
