• Build productive, trust‑based working relationships across teams without relying on formal authority.
• Support preparation for SteerCo, ExCo, and senior leadership forums by tailoring materials to the needs and expectations of each audience.
• Present information clearly and confidently, highlighting key messages, risks, and decisions requiring leadership attention.
• Ensure all messaging is consistent, factual, and aligned with GTB’s modernization objectives.
• Apply sound judgment when determining what information to elevate, summarize, or escalate.
• Identify inconsistencies, gaps, or risks in reporting and escalate them appropriately to the Director.
• Balance clarity with completeness, avoiding both over‑reporting and under‑reporting.
• Support maintenance of core governance artifacts, including milestone tracking, issue logs, and status summaries.
• Contribute to ongoing improvements in reporting templates, standards, and ways of working.
• Ensure alignment with established GTB and enterprise‑level reporting frameworks and expectations.
• Apply the Bank’s risk appetite and risk culture to day‑to‑day decisions and activities.
• Champion a high‑performance culture and contribute to an inclusive, collaborative work environment.

What You'll Bring:

• 5+ years of experience in banking, payments, transformation, or complex delivery environments.
• Experience supporting multiple concurrent modernization initiatives in fast‑paced, high‑visibility settings.
• Strong understanding of product lifecycle management and familiarity with Agile delivery methodologies.
• Experience working in an Agile environment or directly with development teams (an asset).
• Working knowledge of high‑value payments (an asset).
• Ability to synthesize complex technical, operational, and architectural details into clear, executive‑ready outputs.
• Excellent written, verbal, and presentation skills, with the ability to distill technical information into accessible terms.
• Demonstrated experience acting as a bridge between business, operations, and technology teams.
• In‑depth knowledge of how product, operations, and technology infrastructures connect and interact, with the ability to identify dependencies, risks, and alignment to strategic objectives.
• Advanced proficiency in PowerPoint and Excel.
• Strong documentation, coordination, and communication skills, able to engage confidently with both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
• Ability to manage deadlines, prioritize effectively, and deliver high‑quality outputs under pressure.
• Superior influence, negotiation, and conflict‑management skills, with the ability to align diverse viewpoints without formal authority.
• Strong judgment in determining what to elevate, summarize, or escalate.
• Self‑motivated, independent working style with strong problem‑solving capability.
• Awareness of emerging technologies and modern delivery practices, with a commitment to continuous learning and growth.
