While maintaining a baseline of operational excellence and system health, your primary mandate will be shifting the team from reactive operational support ("How do I fix this?") to forward-looking strategic engagement ("Why and how should we grow with this?"). You will lead a unified team, manage onshore/offshore delivery models, and establish high-touch executive governance across our most critical strategic accounts.
