• Produce regular reporting on delivery status, risks, decisions required, dependencies, benefits, and capacity constraints, highlighting areas requiring intervention.
• Track whether initiatives are delivering intended outcomes and highlight where plans, benefits, or priorities may require course correction.
• Provide clear, consistent insight to support senior leadership decision-making across the transformation agenda.
• Support the development and adoption of proportionate governance, reporting standards, decision routes, and delivery expectations across transformation activity.
• Work with PMO, IT Delivery, and Digital Delivery to align ways of working and improve joined-up planning, prioritisation, escalation, and benefits tracking.

• Identify opportunities to improve delivery discipline, transparency, and accountability across major business initiatives.
