PMO & Programme Governance lead building enterprise RAID-based delivery oversight and CAPEX governance to drive measurable savings.
What I'm looking for
I’m a PMO & Programme Governance Lead with 4.5+ years establishing governance frameworks across enterprise IT delivery and CAPEX programmes. I’ve built full PMO setup for a 7,000+ worker HRMS programme, running RAID logs, RAG status reporting, steering committee packs, change control, and milestone tracking—while also leading UAT go/no-go governance across release cycles.
At Premier Energies, I coordinate oversight for a ₹3,000 Cr+ greenfield solar cell line, manage cross-border stakeholder delivery, and support strategic transactions from Day 1 readiness through post-closing PMI and JV coordination. I bring data-driven executive reporting (Power BI), change management (ADKAR), and Lean Six Sigma DMAIC discipline—delivering ₹2 Cr annual savings, improving approval TAT by 40%+, reducing customer overdue by 30%, and supporting board-level CSR reporting under Companies Act.
