• Serve as the primary project manager coordinating across IT/Security stakeholders, business units, and the MSP delivering the environment.
• Develop and maintain the integrated project plan, timeline, milestones, and RAID log (risks/actions/issues/decisions).
• Manage vendor/MSP&MSSP delivery including scope alignment, execution tracking, dependencies, deliverable acceptance, and issue escalation.
• Establish clear scope boundaries between the enclave “core baseline” (shared services) and business-specific customization requirements.
• Coordinate technical implementation and readiness activities delivered through the MSP, including:
• Azure landing zone / subscription structure, segmentation, and governance
• Network design and isolation (hub/spoke, routing, connectivity, firewalling)

• Ensure operational processes are defined and adopted for the enclave, including access provisioning, change control, incident response coordination, and escalation paths.
• Drive documentation and audit readiness: policies, SOPs, control narratives, diagrams, and proof of operation (with evidence gathered from both internal teams and the MSP).
• Coordinate testing, validation, cutover planning, and go-live readiness; ensure post-launch stabilization (“hypercare”) and transition to steady-state operations.
• Provide clear stakeholder communications and executive-level status reporting, proactively surfacing risks, schedule threats, and mitigation options.
• Process and track one-time and re-occurring project invoices against the budget. Develop, manage, and maintain the operating cost model for each of the included businesses.
