Collaborate with construction, contracts, engineering, procurement, supply chain, project management, and field teams to ensure project controls information is accurate, consistent, timely, and useful for decision-making.

Lead continuous improvement of project controls practices, templates, processes, reporting tools, data analytics, lessons learned, and standards within the Capital Construction team.

Travel occasionally to construction sites, as required, to support field progress validation, project reviews, stakeholder coordination, and project controls activities.
