  • Drive performance measurement and benefits realisation through meaningful metrics and data-driven insights. 

  • Champion continuous improvement initiatives that enhance project and portfolio management practices across Technology.

  • Significant experience leading PMO, portfolio management, project delivery or transformation functions within large and complex organisations.  Ideally, you will have experience in establishing a similar function. 

  • Strong knowledge of portfolio governance, delivery assurance, project controls, reporting and risk management. 

  • Experience working across large technology portfolios with multiple concurrent initiatives and diverse stakeholder groups. 

  • Demonstrated success establishing or improving PMO frameworks, delivery methodologies, governance processes and reporting capabilities.

What you need to know about the Chennai Tech Scene

To locals, it's no secret that South India is leading the charge in big data infrastructure. While the environmental impact of data centers has long been a concern, emerging hubs like Chennai are favored by companies seeking ready access to renewable energy resources, which provide more sustainable and cost-effective solutions. As a result, Chennai, along with neighboring Bengaluru and Hyderabad, is poised for significant growth, with a projected 65 percent increase in data center capacity over the next decade.
