• Analyze physical progress and financial data to generate timely and accurate forecasts that support performance status reporting, including completion dates and financial results.
• Establish and maintain effective relationships with clients to achieve active cooperation, prompt payments, and additional work opportunities.
• Resolve issues and solve problems that arise throughout the duration of the project to mitigate company risk.
• Lead and coach project teams on a proactive basis; maintain both project‑specific and corporate requirements for safety, quality, and productivity throughout the project duration.
• Generate, prepare and submit invoices per the terms of the contract, monitor payment status and actively pursue late or partial payments for vendors and subcontractors to ensure payment within contractual terms.
• Perform other related duties as assigned.
