This role is well-suited for someone who takes initiative, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and is comfortable working across functions to solve problems.

• Assist with AVL (Approved Vendor List) updates and vendor communications.
• Track and document procurement timelines and material readiness.

Estimating & Bid Support

• Develop and maintain cost estimates based on historical data and market benchmarks.
• Support the comparison and evaluation of EPC bids and scope breakdowns.
• Assist in standardizing bid templates to improve accuracy and repeatability.

Collaboration and Scale

• Expand automation and improve tools for enhanced estimation, bid and procurement management processes
• Coordinate across PMO, Finance, Development and Engineering to align procurement with project, timeline and scope requirements.
• Maintain alignment between procurement decisions and LCOE targets.
