What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead PMO/portfolio governance and CAPEX delivery, building RAID-based oversight, executive dashboards, and change-controlled execution across cross-functional teams—where measurable savings, risk management, and stakeholder alignment drive outcomes.

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.
