• Prepare and manage all project documentation, including specifications, bids, cost tracking, and closeout packages.
• Monitor budgets and expenditures, maintaining accuracy in financial reporting.
• Uphold all safety and operational compliance standards throughout the project lifecycle.
• Drive process improvements and contribute to plant reliability initiatives.
