o Define and manage the program roadmap, establishing clear milestones and timelines, ensuring that all teams are aligned and delivering on schedule.

o Oversee the execution of the migration strategy, working closely with business and technical teams to ensure the CCaaS solution meets business needs, customer experience goals, and operational requirements.

o Provide leadership and guidance to both technical and non-technical teams, ensuring effective communication and a shared understanding of the program's objectives and deliverables.

· Stakeholder Engagement & Communication:

o Act as the primary point of contact for senior leadership, program sponsors, and stakeholders, providing clear and regular updates on program progress, risks, and key decisions.

o Manage stakeholder expectations, ensuring that all business requirements are effectively communicated and prioritized while balancing the complexities of the migration.

o Ensure alignment between the business goals, customer expectations, and technical deliverables throughout the program lifecycle.

· Risk & Issue Management:

o Proactively identify, assess, and manage risks and issues that could impact the migration program, ensuring that potential blockers are addressed promptly, working closely with the Program Manager and PMO team.

o Lead the risk mitigation strategy, resolving obstacles quickly and ensuring program continuity, especially in high-pressure situations.

o Coordinate with internal teams and vendors to ensure potential issues—such as data migration challenges, integration complexities, or legacy system dependencies—are handled effectively.

· Migration Strategy & Execution:

o Lead the execution of a phased CCaaS migration, ensuring that the transition from legacy systems to the new platform is seamless, efficient, and minimally disruptive.

o Work with business and IT teams to prioritize migration activities, managing dependencies and ensuring that all systems and processes are integrated into the new CCaaS environment.

o Oversee data migration, system integration, testing, and validation efforts, ensuring that all systems, workflows, and customer data are migrated accurately and securely.

· Vendor & Partner Management:

o Oversee relationships with third-party vendors and technology partners, ensuring they deliver on contract terms, quality expectations, and timelines.

o Ensure that external vendors are integrated effectively into the project and manage any challenges related to vendor performance, service level agreements (SLAs), or technical delivery.

· Post-Implementation Support & Optimization:

o Lead post-implementation support, ensuring that any issues identified after migration are addressed quickly and efficiently, and that the new CCaaS solution is performing optimally.

o Collaborate with operations and support teams to ensure smooth handover and ongoing system optimization following the migration.
