Responsibilities:

  • Proactively monitor workstream activities, identifying delays, resource gaps, or cross-functional misalignments before they impact progress.
  • Provide regular, independent updates to leadership on risks, bottlenecks, and execution gaps—offering clear solutions, not just reporting issues.

 Skills and Experience:
  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Construction Management, or a related field.
