• Work in close partnership with global, regional, and local stakeholders, including other Capgemini business units, practices, and delivery organizations, to scale Data & Analytics business and ensure continuity from sales through delivery.
• Ensure effective Sales-to-Delivery transition, with clear processes for mobilization, staffing, and handover, engaging CoE and delivery experts where advanced expertise or complex delivery support is required.
