Responsibilities

- Coordinate pre-commissioning activities, punch list close-out, and startup sequencing across all project parties
- Ensure the project transitions cleanly from construction into commissioning and from commissioning into operation
- Produce clear, concise project reports and updates for leadership and stakeholders
- Surface issues early with proposed solutions — not just status updates
- Keep internal teams aligned on priorities, decisions, and next steps
