Working alongside project teams, you will monitor contractual commitments, change orders, forecasts, and commercial exposure while supporting project reporting on contract status, cost performance, profitability, and cash flow. Success in this role requires a strong understanding of construction contracts, procurement strategy, project controls, and commercial leadership, along with the ability to foster a culture of accountability, trust, collaboration, and continuous improvement that contributes to successful project delivery.
