Overview
The Director of Digital Transformation Office provides oversight of organization's Digital Transformation Office (DTO), establishing the structure to set up and manage multiple strategic initiatives at scale with consistent execution approaches, driving change management efforts and ensuring value delivery.

The DTO Director must have the ability to understand organization's business capabilities, develop and cultivate stakeholder relationships, and guide successful outcomes across multiple business units and complex programs to meet the organizations strategic goals and objectives. The DTO Director drives impact and minimizes value leakage by focusing on delivering value through initiatives vs. simply tracking progress. The DTO Director drives the day-to-day processes with relentless focus on fact base to support value delivery and change management.

The DTO will establish and manage a digital transformation roadmap aligned with business priorities, evaluate program health of key initiatives, and intervene in programs to ensure they reduce risks, drive actions, and deliver successfully. The DTO will support dealing with cross-program dependencies, resource constraints, vendor performance, finances and invoicing, reporting, and transitions from transformational states to steady state operations.

The DTOs objective is to help select programs to be staffed appropriately, negotiate allocations, and minimize distractions on those resources with regards to daily operations and lower priority work efforts. This includes being able to manage in a matrixed environment and collaborating effectively with steady state delivery and support teams.
