- Independently manage negotiations, work orders, and accountability for project partners.

- Conduct site inspections and enforce performance benchmarks with vendors.

Client Management:

- Act as the primary execution lead for clients on assigned projects.

- Provide regular updates, manage expectations, and proactively address issues or escalations.

- Ensure high client satisfaction throughout the delivery lifecycle.
