• Proactively identify risks, bottlenecks, and dependencies; implement mitigation strategies to ensure successful project outcomes.
• Foster alignment across teams in a fast-paced, high-growth environment, ensuring all contributors are informed and accountable.
• Monitor project progress and report status regularly, ensuring transparency and early issue escalation.
