The department was managing a large and ageing backlog that had accumulated over time, making it difficult to distinguish strategic priorities from outdated or low-value work. Limited visibility across projects, dependencies and delivery status also created challenges for project managers and stakeholders when making prioritisation and planning decisions.
Led a comprehensive backlog review and rationalisation effort, removing obsolete items and improving the quality of active work. Established a department-wide roadmap that provided greater visibility into projects, dependencies, timelines and delivery priorities, creating a shared view across teams and stakeholders.
Reduced the active backlog by 77%, enabling teams to focus on current business priorities and higher-value initiatives. Improved transparency across digital commerce projects, strengthened stakeholder alignment and provided project managers with a clearer foundation for planning, prioritisation and delivery decisions.
OMHU was preparing to launch Iconic Dupe, its largest campaign, with a need to coordinate the work across the campaign and establish the systems and marketplace setup required to support execution.
As Senior Project Manager, I acted as the central project lead, coordinated the launch activities, set up supporting systems and workflows, and opened OMHU’s shops on Temu and Etsy as part of the commercial setup.
Helped launch Iconic Dupe with the operational structure and marketplace presence needed to support the campaign, creating a clearer foundation for coordination and execution across the initiative.
The team needed a more structured and transparent operating model to improve planning, prioritisation and alignment across data and analytics initiatives. As demand increased, there was a growing need for clearer ownership, visibility and coordination between stakeholders and delivery teams.
Introduced Scrum practices, established a structured planning and follow-up cadence, and created greater transparency around priorities, capacity and ongoing work. Worked closely with stakeholders and team members to align expectations, improve communication and create a more predictable delivery process.
Created a more transparent and collaborative way of working, improving scope definition, prioritisation and stakeholder alignment. The team gained better visibility into ongoing initiatives, clearer decision-making processes and a stronger foundation for delivering data and analytics projects effectively.
The organisation needed greater structure and transparency across ongoing initiatives. Business objectives, stakeholder expectations and delivery activities were often moving at different speeds, creating a need for clearer prioritisation, communication and execution.
Coordinated projects and delivery activities across stakeholders, supported planning and follow-up processes, and acted as a bridge between business needs and execution. Established clearer communication channels, improved visibility into ongoing work and helped ensure initiatives progressed according to agreed priorities and timelines.

Visible work and explicit delivery stages make bottlenecks, ownership and progress easier to understand and improve.
Clear priorities, sprint goals and shared expectations before work starts.
Visible flow, dependencies, risks and ownership across product, business and technology.
Reviews, retrospectives and delivery signals used to remove friction and strengthen predictability.
We clarify current delivery challenges, team setup, stakeholders and where support would create the most value.
I review backlog, roadmap, ceremonies, stakeholder flow and current friction points.
We create clearer priorities, sequencing and a practical rhythm for decision-making and delivery.
