You manage workload distribution and resolve resourcing challenges proactively. Own and manage 2 client projects end-to-end, from strategic planning to execution and performance optimization. You take full accountability of delivery, timelines, and quality, ensuring that results align with agreed KPIs and client expectations. Coach and grow talent: Develop juniors and mediors through regular 1-on-1s, feedback loops, and structured growth plans.
