Description

Key Responsibilities

·       Own end-to-end delivery of assigned CargoWise releases, defining scope,

deliverables, acceptance criteria and responsibilities with business and IT stakeholders.

·       Create and maintain an integrated project plan covering requirements, design,

configuration, integrations, data migration, testing, validation, training, cutover and

hypercare. Track dependencies, critical-path activities and regional release

commitments.

·       Manage approved budgets, actual spend, forecasts and remaining funding.

Review vendor estimates, timesheets and invoices against agreed scope and delivered

work; assess the financial impact of proposed changes.

·       Coordinate internal resources, implementation partners and third-party integrators.

Track vendor milestones, resolve resource constraints and escalate delivery or

performance gaps.

·       Coordinate requirements and design reviews with business owners and technical

leads, securing approvals and traceability before build and testing proceed.

·       Manage CargoWise integration delivery with CT Global and other approved

systems. Track interface specifications, data mappings, transaction flows, error

handling, and resolution of integration defects.

·       Coordinate data migration and reconciliation, including master and transactional

data and exchange-rate processing checks where included in release scope. Confirm

business ownership and acceptance of migrated data.

·       Plan and coordinate integration testing, regression testing and User Acceptance

Testing (UAT). Ensure test owners, environments, entry and exit criteria, defect

priorities, and business sign-off are agreed.

·       Coordinate risk-based Computer System Validation (CSV), including IQ/OQ/PQ

where applicable, with Quality and validation specialists. Track validation evidence,

deviations, and approvals required for release.

·       Maintain risks, assumptions, issues, and dependencies (RAID), decision logs, and

change requests. Assess impacts on scope, cost, timelines and compliance, and obtain

approvals before changing baselines.

·       Run project governance and provide clear status reports to the Advisory Board,

steering stakeholders, and Change Advisory Board (CAB), as applicable. Present

delivery risks, financial variances, and decisions required.

·       Drive security assessments, production change approvals and go-live readiness

reviews. Manage cutover and rollback planning, deployment coordination, hypercare

and transition to operational support.

·       Coordinate training, stakeholder communications and adoption activities with

business owners. Track agreed benefits after implementation and close the project with

accepted deliverables and lessons learned.

·       Ensure the following project deliverables are maintained and approved by the

accountable owners:

·       Project scope, integrated delivery plan, resource plan and budget baseline.

·       Approved requirements, design documents, interface specifications and data

mappings.

·       Testing and validation plans, evidence, defect records and acceptance sign-offs.

·       RAID and change registers, financial forecasts and governance reports.

·       Cutover and rollback plans, training materials and operational readiness approvals.

·       Hypercare closure, support handover and benefits tracking.
