• Monitor delivery performance metrics (velocity, predictability, throughput) and drive corrective actions where needed.
• Drive adoption of continuous improvement practices across all DXP squads.

People Management & Capability Development

• Coach and mentor TPMs, supporting their career development, skills growth, and performance reviews.
• Foster a culture of proactive communication, accountability, and continuous learning across the TPM community.
• Lead training sessions or playbook initiatives to strengthen agile delivery maturity, tooling proficiency, and reporting discipline.
• Identify and recruit high-performing TPM talent aligned to StarHub’s transformation roadmap.

Stakeholder Engagement & Communication

• Serve as a trusted partner to senior engineering, business, and architecture leaders — ensuring transparency on delivery health and execution status.
