About the Role

The Director, Transition & Integration is accountable for the strategic planning and execution of select large-scale, complex transitions across the enterprise, including enterprise transformation and strategic capability projects. This role serves as the single point of accountability for end-to-end integration success, ensuring continuity of services, sequenced change, risk mitigation, and clear leadership communication throughout all phases of transition. The Director operates as a central orchestrator, coordinating cross-functional workstreams, proactively managing dependencies and pressure points, and ensuring that change is introduced in a disciplined, sustainable manner without compromising operational performance or service levels.

Responsibilities

Lead and own the integration and transition roadmap of select, large-scale initiatives across all phases (plan, mobilize, execute, stabilize).
Serve as the single point of accountability for overall transition and integration outcomes.
Coordinate cross-functional workstreams on these initiatives to ensure alignment, readiness, and timely decision-making.
Ensure integration milestones, success measures, and stabilization criteria are clearly defined and tracked by horizon.
Act as the enterprise focal point for these initiatives through transition coordination, enabling visibility across the organization.
Proactively monitor pressure points and emerging risks across technology, operations, people, and vendors as they relate to the implementation of these initiatives.
Surface issues early, escalate decisively, and drive resolution before risks become service disruptions.
Maintain a cohesive view of risks, issues, and dependencies across concurrent initiatives in-line with standard organizational risk management protocols.
Plan resource demands adequately to avoid parallel constraints and/or concurrent resource demands.
Balance the delivery timelines of these initiatives with operational capacity to protect performance, safety, and morale.
Partner with business and operational leaders to manage change saturation and ensure realistic execution plans-based timeline constraints.
Partner with operational, business and technology leaders to define and monitor continuity plans during transition periods.
Ensure service levels, customer outcomes, and regulatory obligations are maintained throughout integration of these initiatives.
Track transition performance metrics and lead corrective actions where continuity is at risk and establish mitigation strategies to address, resolve or reduce risk profile.
Align leadership messaging to ensure clarity, consistency, and confidence throughout the change management lifecycle.
Reduce uncertainty by ensuring stakeholders understand what is changing, when, and why.
Enable leaders with clear transition narratives, decision points, and risk awareness.
Establish and operate effective transition governance structures.
Enable timely, informed decisions by synthesizing complex inputs into clear options and trade-offs.
Ensure accountability across workstreams and remove barriers to progress.

Requirements

10+ years of progressive experience in enterprise transformation, integration, transition management, or large-scale program leadership.
Proven experience leading complex, cross-functional transitions involving operations, technology, people, and vendors.
Demonstrated accountability for end-to-end integration programs, including roadmap ownership, governance, and stabilization.
Experience managing concurrent, high-impact initiatives while maintaining operational continuity.
Strong background working with executive leadership to enable timely decisions and align messaging.
Experience in regulated, national, or mission-critical environments preferred.
Exposure to in-housing, operating model shifts, or service delivery transformations is a strong asset.

Skills

Enterprise transition and integration management across complex, multi-workstream initiatives.
End-to-end ownership of integration roadmaps, milestones, and stabilization outcomes.
Strong systems thinking with the ability to anticipate downstream operational, technical, and people impacts.
Advanced risk, issue, and dependency management, with proactive escalation and mitigation.
Change sequencing and capacity management to prevent operational overload and protect performance.
Operational readiness assessment and service continuity planning during periods of significant change.
Governance design and execution, including clear decision rights, escalation paths, and accountability.
Ability to synthesize complex information into clear options, trade-offs, and executive recommendations.
Strong executive presence with the ability to influence and align leaders without direct authority.
Clear, disciplined communication that reduces uncertainty and aligns leadership messaging.
Proven ability to coordinate cross-functional teams across Operations, Technology, HR, Finance, and Vendors.
Performance monitoring and use of metrics to track transition health and integration success.
