What are the top 3-5 skills, experience or education required for this position?
1. Enterprise Project & Portfolio Management (Non-Negotiable)
" Proven ability to manage multiple concurrent projects with competing priorities using a structured intake, sequencing, and delivery model.
" Comfortable operating at both project-level execution and portfolio-level tradeoff discussions (capacity, priority, timing).
" Experience supporting PMO governance, not just running isolated projects.

2. Executive & Steering Committee Enablement
" Demonstrated experience preparing leadership-ready materials: decision briefs, status summaries, risks/tradeoffs, and options not raw project updates.
" Skilled at framing work so leaders can clearly answer: approve, defer, change scope, or stop.
" Comfortable facilitating governance forums (SteerCo, leadership reviews) and following through on decisions.

3. Cross-Functional Influence & Change Management
" Strong ability to work across Security, BTS, HR, Legal, Compliance, EHS, Facilities, and Regions without formal authority.
" Experience supporting change management, communications, and training rollouts, especially where policy or behavior change is involved.
" Understands that adoption risk is just as critical as technical delivery.

4. Comfort in Regulated / Security-Adjacent Environments
" Familiarity with security, compliance-driven, or regulated environments (physical security, IT/security systems, pharma, manufacturing, privacy, safety).
" Understands concepts like risk, controls, audits, access management, and policy enforcement even if they are not the technical expert.

5. Structured Thinking + Comfort with Ambiguity
Ability to bring structure to unclear work, especially early-stage initiatives coming out of Phoenix, AI exploration, or strategy discussions.
Strong judgment on when to add rigor vs. keep things light, depending on risk and scale.
Proactive, self-directed, and comfortable iterating as strategy evolves.

What is a nice to have (but not required) skill, experience, education, or certification?
