• Stakeholder Management: Serve as the primary point of contact for senior stakeholders (HR Directors, CIOs, DPOs). Facilitate data sign-off workshops and provide regular milestone status reports to the Programme Board.

• Risk & Compliance: Maintain the Migration Risk Register, ensuring all data handling aligns strictly with public sector data governance frameworks, information security policies, and data quality KPIs.
