- Develop detailed understanding our client's business and adjust implementation plans and approach to meet capabilities.
- Simplify complex topics and create innovative solutions for issues or new business concepts.
- Manage engagement across internal risk management committees e.g. FORCC.
- Employ a risk-based process-first approach to implementation design to ensure efficient execution and buy-in from internal stakeholders.
- Maintain a One BlackRock perspective to deliver results, which are beneficial for both individual businesses and the firm as well as our clients.
- Building strong relationships with client stakeholders and ensuring a sound understanding of their objectives, their people, process, platform, and technologies.
- Export change management expertise and experience to client program managers and COO.

- Managing capacity of our businesses - know when to engage and deploy resourcing appropriately.
