• Create and maintain status reports, issue logs, and project forecasts 
• Work with cross functional teams (Engineering, Operations, Professional Services Consulting, etc.) to manage multiple projects with competing needs and priorities
• Proactively anticipate risks and bottlenecks, identify mitigation steps, develop contingency plans, and escalate when necessary to ensure successful project outcomes
• Fully understand and manage clients to contracts, proposals, and statements of work 
• Monitor billable hours for all projects, ensuring consultants input time promptly/properly and ensuring project estimates are not exceeded without prior approval by the customer

3. Contribute to continuous improvement efforts 

• Regularly assess current practices and recommend ways to increase efficiency and effectiveness 
• Collaboratively adjust and develop new plans, templates, and other artifacts
• Leverage our existing systems and tools to their fullest potential, and identify requirements for systems enhancements
