• You will proactively identify risks and remove roadblocks, helping the team find the pathway to excellence that earns the admiration and respect of your clients. You will track project progress and communicate updates to stakeholders regularly through reports and presentations. You will report to the Delivery Excellence group, ensuring two-way communication is always in place. You will conduct project reviews and identify areas for improvement.

• Your ability to deliver structured, clear, and professional communication is pivotal to how our clients perceive Infinite Lambda. This requires you to tailor your communication style to best suit each client's environment. You will be responsible for maintaining a safe and congenial working environment for your team. You are a natural entrepreneur, which drives you to see opportunities that empower your clients’ business strategies through data and bring in more business through close interaction with Account Managers.
