• Administer and enforce project-specific Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) procedures and company quality management programs.
• Collaborate with discipline leaders and project executives to ensure successful project outcomes.
• Facilitate problem-solving and decision-making efforts to address complex technical and project challenges.
• Monitor project schedules, deliverables, and financial performance to achieve profitability and operational goals.
• Support business development activities through client engagement, proposal development, capture planning, and interview participation.
• Successfully participate in STV Project Management training.
• Travel locally, regionally, and nationally as required (approximately 10-15%) and obtain credentials required for secure facilities access and classified project work.
