Lead initiator . . .


Explanation:
Suggestion:

I don't know if there's a "formal term" for "dono da esteira" . . but I believe it may refer to the leader who initiates a project, job, or one who sets things in motion, etc.

Notes to answerer

project owner


Explanation:
I assume it's in quotation marks because the term is used throughout the document, so it needs to be translated. If true, then maybe this is an option for you.

"... establish a formal sign-off of the project scope by the project owner and the champion."
