Team Leadership & Mentorship: Lead large onshore and offshore teams, mentor junior project managers, develop team capabilities, and promote consistent application of organizational standards and best practices.

SAP Data Migration Expertise: Apply advanced knowledge of data migration and data governance methodologies, ensuring effective use of specialized tools and compliance with prescribed development standards.

Business Process & Technical Oversight: Guide teams in understanding business processes, data structures, migration requirements, and technical dependencies across assigned SAP functional areas.
