We are looking for an experienced and results-oriented Package Director to lead and oversee a portfolio of large-scale, complex infrastructure projects. The role is responsible for ensuring strategic alignment, efficient execution, and successful delivery across the program, while driving high-level stakeholder engagement, cross-project coordination, resource optimization, and robust governance to achieve organizational objectives and maintain excellence in quality, schedule, and budget performance.

Key Responsibilities :

1. Strategic Project & Program Leadership

  • Oversee the planning, initiation, and execution of multiple complex projects within the package, ensuring alignment with organizational goals and strategic priorities.
  • Define and refine scopes, objectives, and high-level deliverables across the entire project portfolio, collaborating closely with senior stakeholders and cross‑functional leadership.
  • Conduct comprehensive feasibility analyses and risk assessments across all projects, ensuring risks are proactively identified, prioritized, and mitigated before impacting cost, schedule, or quality.
  • Develop multi‑project program roadmaps, including integrated schedules, budget frameworks, and resource plans to ensure successful delivery of the full package.

2. Cross‑Project Execution & Performance Management

  • Provide strategic direction and leadership to multiple project teams, ensuring smooth coordination and consistent adherence to program timelines, quality standards, and regulatory requirements.
  • Establish robust monitoring systems to track project health across the entire package, including progress, budget performance, interdependence, and resource utilization.
  • Identify operational issues or deviations at both the project and program level; implement corrective actions, escalations, or process improvements to maintain delivery momentum.
  • Drive continuous improvement and standardized delivery approaches across all projects for efficiency, consistency, and scalability.
  • 3. Executive Stakeholder & Client Engagement

  • Serve as the primary point of accountability for all stakeholders across the project package, ensuring expectations are clearly defined and consistently met.
  • Facilitate high‑level communication with executives, clients, and cross‑functional leaders through structured reporting, governance meetings, and status reviews.
  • Build and maintain strong stakeholder relationships, proactively managing concerns, aligning priorities, and ensuring transparency throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Lead negotiations and conflict resolution efforts to remove organizational roadblocks and safeguard program success.
  • 4. Resource & Capacity Management Across the Package

  • Lead resource planning across multiple projects, ensuring optimal allocation of personnel, equipment, and materials to meet program objectives.
  • Partner with functional managers to forecast staffing needs, resolve capacity gaps, and coordinate required expertise across different workstreams.
  • Oversee resource utilization metrics and ensure strategic deployment to avoid bottlenecks, inefficiencies, or project delays.
  • Promote a culture of collaboration and knowledge sharing among project teams to enhance performance and capability.
  • 5. Quality Governance, Compliance, & Risk Oversight

  • Establish and enforce quality governance frameworks across all projects, ensuring deliverables consistently meet organizational standards, industry regulations, and client expectations.
  • Oversee the identification, assessment, and management of risks across the project package, including enterprise‑level risks with potential cross‑project impact.
  • Develop and maintain comprehensive mitigation and contingency strategies that preserve timelines, budgets, and quality outcomes.
  • Ensure compliance with all internal policies, external regulations, and contractual obligations throughout the project lifecycle.
  • 6. Program Closeout, Optimization, and Continuous Improvement

  • Lead structured closeout processes for each project within the package, ensuring all deliverables, documentation, and performance criteria are fully met.
  • Conduct cross‑project evaluations and consolidated lessons‑learned reviews to capture insights, enhance methodologies, and drive future organizational excellence.
  • Present final program outcomes to senior leadership, highlighting achievements, performance metrics, risk outcomes, and recommendations for future initiatives.
  • Create knowledge repositories, best‑practice frameworks, and process standards that elevate the organization’s project maturity and operational efficiency.
  • Education and Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in project management, Engineering, or a related discipline.
  • 25+ years of experience leading large‑scale, multi‑project programs within infrastructure, demonstrating record of delivering complex project portfolios on time, within budget, and to quality expectations.
  • Proven strategic leadership abilities, with experience guiding and empowering cross‑functional project teams, fostering collaboration, and driving high‑performance cultures across multiple workstreams.
  • Exceptional communication, negotiation, and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence at executive levels, resolve conflicts, and maintain strong relationships with internal and external partners.
  • Advanced knowledge of project and program management methodologies, frameworks, and best practices.
  • Strong analytical, critical‑thinking, and problem‑solving capabilities, with a proactive approach to identifying risks, addressing issues, and implementing strategic mitigation plans across multiple concurrent initiatives.
  • Ability to thrive in a fast‑paced, complex, and evolving environment, effectively managing competing priorities, shifting demands, and multiple high‑visibility projects while maintaining exceptional attention to detail and quality.
